I haven’t read the full thing yet but this part sure sucks: “once a claim is filed, the accused infringer has 60 days to reject the process, forcing it to be heard in federal court instead.”
- didibus 6y agoThis seems like a huge loophole, like basically you can only use this "small court" to go after people who can't afford federal court. So it's more likely that big media will use it to more cheaply go after small infringers who won't be able to afford defending themselves in federal court. But if you're a small artist, and try to go after a big company, they'll just reject the process and go to federal court, which the accuser can't afford and we're back at square one. Anyhow, I hope I'm misreading this, or there's missing details here, cause if not, this seems like a step in the wrong direction.
