Etsy is not a major "UGC" host, they are a marketplace taking a cut of sales for product.
- dangrossman 3y agoThey operate a website that hosts hundreds of millions of webpages containing images and text provided by their users. No products pass through their hands. They're a UGC host, just like YouTube or Shopify or Hacker News, all of whom deal with DMCA claims. The DMCA safe harbor provisions do not care about the reason for which a website is hosting UGC.
- indymike 3y agoThe takedown should be filed with Google (the host) against Etsy for content hosted on Etsy. It is questionable that Etsy is the host.
