Filing a false DMCA claim is perjury.
> A DMCA claim (or takedown) is when a copyright holder notifies a service provider that they have infringing material on their site/service. It is also known as a “Notification of Infringement”. For example, Twitch has these guidelines for submitting DMCA claims. Essentially it boils down to send in writing who you are, who is infringing your rights, how they’re doing it, and swear under penalty of perjury that you are telling the truth.

- maccard 6y agoHas that ever been enforced, in any shape or form?
- salawat 6y agoYou have to counterfile, but there's a poison pill in the regulation that by doing so you agree U.S. courts have jurisdiction, thereby nullifying any protections you have from being in another countries juridiction. I mean, there is no getting around it if you want the countersuit to work and reflect poorly on the claimant, but you are agreeing to letting the U.S. have extra-territorial jurisdiction.
- maccard 6y agoIf you're in the US then you're already under jurisdiction, right? Why wouldn't someone who is already under us jurisdiction try it?
- alisonkisk 6y agoHuh? If you aren't in the US you can ignore DMCA entirely.
