    Description:
    The F-Droid project has some
    advice for free-software projects on how to deal with takedown
    requests. As part of our legal resilience research, we spoke with a range of
    legal experts, software freedom advocates, and maintainers of
    mature FOSS infrastructure to understand how others manage these
    moments. In this article, we share what we learned, and how F-Droid
    is incorporating these lessons into its own approach.
