> I think the whole thing is dumb, but at the very least there should be some form of punishment for bogus DMCA claims, and purposefully labyrinthine DMCA processes. This isn't a copyright claim, so DMCA doesn't apply, but the DMCA rewards labyrinthine DMCA processes by granting the provider immunity. Following notice / counter-notice timelines in the law means the host is not liable to either of the other parties for the takedown or the restoration. Might be nice if there was a faster process to restoration if the customer vows to indemnify the host though.
