If you read the notice, you'll see that absolutely nowhere did they claim that they owned the copyright to the code. They claimed that the code was being used to infringe on copyrighted works. There are no lies in the notice and no perjury. Nearly everything the notice is factual. The only claim that needs a little support is the claim that PopCornTime's predominant purpose and use is for copyright infringement, but that would take about five minutes to convince a reasonable person.
- loeg 6y agoSubmitting a DMCA takedown notice without claiming copyright is an abuse of the good will of the recipient (Github) and an abuse of the DMCA takedown system. Even if it is not perjury, it should be condemned and rampant abuse should expose parties like MPA to litigation.
- huffmsa 6y agoSo what are they claiming to own the copyright to in that repo?
