Yahoo! Did the same thing not too long ago, and when Young refused to remove the document, Yahoo! just let it drop. The site never went down, and Yahoo!'s doc is still there.

- kevingadd 17y agoI can't comment on the actual interpretation of the laws in question, but whenever we dealt with DMCA notices at a previous company, standard operating procedure was to take down the content in question, and then reinstate it if a counter-notification was filed and leave it up to the two parties' lawyers to settle the dispute. In this case, there seems to have been a counter-notification and the involvement of legal counsel so simply taking down the website seems highly extreme. Maybe it just comes down to operating procedure and Network Solutions goes for a heavy-handed approach because a lot of their customers are hosting warez and such.
