What if a forum owner receives a DMCA letter, or a letter from NSA? You do not really need to consult a lawyer to remove copyrighted material or something else that is illegal.
- speedplane 8y agoA single DMCA notice is relatively easy to deal with. Even though a startup owner probably "should" consult with a lawyer, you don't need to if the take-down request is clear and the material is either clearly infringing or not. There are gray areas, but they are rare. A letter from the NSA is a completely different story. You definitely need to hire a lawyer, probably an expensive one. One NSA letter could easily shut down a small startup.
