But the story isn't "Hussie is taking down Homestuck fan works and is coming for yours next." Gio's article isn't about Hussie removing the UHC. It is about Hussie (allegedly, if I even need to say it) using legal threats to exact interpersonal revenge against someone they do not like, while catching a completely innocent party (Unless Bambosh had a problem with Hussie I am not aware of...) in the crossfire. This is unconscionable regardless of who it is happening to.
Gio's language was/is sensational and insensitive. I think focusing on this to any significant measure draws attention from the actual problem, as stated above.
Also, yes! There is not a clear conclusion as of yet. You should not under any circumstances have a solid opinion on this. We have not yet heard Hussie's side or received any verifiable proof at all.
Hot metal looks like cold metal, but feels different.
