Before last week, owners of certain Mazda vehicles who also had a Home Assistant setup could create some handy connections for their car.
In a Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) notice sent to GitHub, Mazda (or an authorized agent) alleges that Rothweiler’s integration:
Frequent Home Assistant contributor J. Nick Kolston, or bdraco on GitHub, was the first of many commenters confused by Mazda’s code claims.
Reverse-engineering for interoperability, such as exposing the Mazda app’s particulars to Home Assistant, could be considered a fair use exception to the DMCA, as explained by the EFF.
Integrations involving other car brands, including Subaru, the Nissan Leaf, and Tesla’s Wall Connector, are still present.
“We genuinely believe there is a common ground between us and Mazda when it comes to enabling the owners of their cars to explore the possibilities of their own data,” Home Assistant founder Paulus Schoutsen wrote.

Bad bot
Alleges that Rothweiler’s integration what? You’ve cut off an important part of the story.
lol read the article then?
What difference would that make to a bot that cuts off an important part of the story?
You can read the article on your own if there is an issue and show a little appreciation for someone doing their best to make a helpful app.
Or I could let them know that the bot has a problem, and hopefully stop the issue from happening in the future.
Ignoring an issue because you want to be nice doesn’t help anyone.
“Bad bot” isn’t an attempt to be helpful. It’s a personal attack against the creator.
Bad bot is how you report an issue with a bot on Reddit. As far as I know, it’s the same here too. There’s no attack on the creator here.
