- kevin_thibedeau 4y agoYoutube takedowns aren't DMCA requests. There is no legal penalty for perjury. It's just a good old fashioned mob shakedown. In this case neither party is even subject to US law so even more irrelevant.
- roughly 4y agoFTA: > Matters have now escalated to the point where the game itself has been taken off Steam due to a DMCA request, and the player is “now claiming that they own the rights to the [realistic] game mode”
- kube-system 4y agoYouTube has an internal system for handing requests apart of DMCA but videos may also be taken down from YouTube via a DMCA request per law. “Takedown” is a word often used interchangeably for a video taken down via either method.
- Rebelgecko 4y agoWhat about Steam takedowns?
- yeahbutiguess 4y agoSteam responds to DMCA, as far as I'm aware, and doesn't have a separate process.
- anigbrowl 4y agoInstitutional remedies which require years of process for abuses that can be carried out in seconds or minutes are fundamentally inadequate.
- lazyasciiart 4y agoA bar association can remediate pretty quickly if it chooses to.
