I run a somewhat popular website whose assets were illegally copied by some small time firms based out of India to build some of their own products. While I was able to mitigate this with a DMCA, I shudder to think what would happen if I were to receive a bad faith counter claim under the proposed clause, since I don’t make anywhere near that amount of money.
- indymike 3y agoRight now, all that happens is the content goes back online which is simply no where near enough. Perhaps some kind of "Ernest money" should accompany a takedown request that would be split between to the person or entity that the takedown was filed against and the service provider? This might really help with fraudulent/frivolous takedowns from jurisdictions that are difficult to enforce US court rulings in. BTW many copyright law firms will work on contingency if the case is clear, and your evidence of ownership is solid.
