It is somewhat concerning to me that the software that was issued the takedown (DeGourou) is not specific to IA. It is an Adobe Digital Editions (ADE) DRM remover.

DeGourou is combination of code from DeDRM (used by many here on MobileRead) and libgourou (an ADE downloader, equivalent to the DeACSM plugin for calibre.)

It is certainly possible that IA could widen the takedown to include DeDRM since that is the original source of the code used in DeGourou to actually perform DRM removal and is used by many for ADE DRM removal.
