    For sure they might try to send a c&d, but it wouldn’t have any legal standing. Whether you have the funds to fight frivolous bullshit like that is one thing, but you can’t get a c&d in the first place if you never put your art out. Even then, all you’d have to do is stop distributing it yourself, but at least it’d be out there

      That’s why I think the creator might be hoping to get paid for his work if he can get the publisher to re release it.

      He can’t release it without being sued. But if it was leaked, he wouldn’t be responsible. They can only sue the torrents’ hosts and downloaders.
