Looks like the Ghostrunner developers also have an issue with paid mods running off their IP.

In germany we have the "Architektenurheberrecht".

Architectural copyright (Architektenurheberrecht) protects an architect's original intellectual and creative achievements, including designs, plans, and completed buildings, provided they possess a sufficient level of originality (Schöpfungshöhe).

Architects can, and have, use this to deny changes to such buildings or claim injunctive relief, removal of the infringement, or financial damages.

Installing extra cabinets would most likely not be enough to seize the house, but if he can convince a judge that it will sufficient change his art he could get a order to have them removed and the original space restored again.

I'm surprised and also not really.

It's exactly the same line of thinking where someone else is given more rights over a thing than the person who owns it.
