I need to talk about Haleson. It’s one thing to use Roblox Assets, but it’s an entirely different level of hypocrisy to gatekeep assets that aren't even yours to begin with.
Despite his mods being built on the back of other people's Roblox assets, Haleson actively threatens DMCA's over those assets
Note: Under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, you generally cannot claim copyright on work that you do not own the rights to. If the base is taken from a Roblox creator, Haleson has no standing to strike others.

These are just a few examples . The list goes on. It is insane to think that a creator would weaponize DMCA strikes to "protect" assets they simply ripped from another platform. This behavior isn't just toxic, it’s a fraudulent use of copyright tools. At least he doesn't make you pay for the maps, though.
