    As I understand it, cause of the country the creator is from, a C&D was unlikely to be enforceable. Money, on the other hand, is a universal language.

      C&D in Brazil stands for Comedy & Despair, where you’re the one laughing at the company desperate to get you to do what they want without having any actual legal leverage

      C&Ds are generally just threats to take someone to court. They aren’t themselves enforceable.

      Even I can send C&Ds if I want but I don’t have anything to back them up with. Nintendo on the other hand absolutely does.
