I fail to see how you think Google is responsible for the DMCA power. Google fought against acts like SOPA because it would have seriously hurt their business.

I fail to see how you think Google is responsible for the DMCA power. Google fought against acts like SOPA because it would have seriously hurt their business. The real people pushing DMCA power are Sony, RIAA, Warner Bros, and the entertainment industry who have the most to lose when it comes to this issue.
- rms_returns 10y agoThen why do they remove the results from their so-called organic search based on DMCA requests? I can also understand if the results are removed just from the USA based (google.com) site, but they are also removed from google.co.uk, google.co.in, etc. Since US Govt. has no jurisdiction over these other countries, I think its improper to apply DMCA blacklisting over there.
- johncolanduoni 10y agoHow does that equate to google search results being the only reason the DMCA has teeth? Do you think they're funding Jon Deere's legal team?
