> RIAA should get a strong kick for this.
Regardless of this particular case, the world would've been a saner place if copyright holders were held liable for erroneous claims.
- DoofusOfDeath 6y agoIs it legal to file a DMCA claim when the motivation is retaliation? (Assuming that the person filing retaliatory DMCA claim can satisfy the good-faith requirement, that is.)
- trickstra 6y agoNobody checks motivation. It is legal to file DMCA for anything. As it stands, the hosting providers don't even verify the validity, or the good-faith requirement, because they don't want to get in a fight that could cost them the safe harbor protection. So even invalid DMCA requests usually mean the content will be blocked for a couple of days and the accused party will have to lawyer up to put together a counter-claim.
