  Yes. So? How is that relevant, if we are talking about the automated requests destroying the internet?

    Because the companies have no say in the matter.

      Again, it’s not the companies complying with the takedowns we are complaining about. It’s the companies that automatically send takedowns, with no regard for whether the takedowns are legitimate. These companies are supposed to have a duty to verify their copyright claim is valid before sending a takedown, but no one is enforcing it, so they don’t do it. That is the biggest issue here. Punish companies for sending illegitimate takedown requests.

        I don’t understand why you just keep repeating yourself

        These companies are supposed to have a duty to verify their copyright claim is valid before sending a takedown

        Again, no they don’t. They are legally required to take it down by the DMCA until it’s disproven.

  Its about sending the takedown request in the first place, not the company complying with it. Its an entirely, automated process with no regard to validity

  They’re not exercising due diligence in confirming that the takedown requests are legitimate (for example, by actually asking the content owners).

    Over again, yes, that’s legal compliance. That’s what the law demands.
