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.

  How can the company sending the takedown request be legally required to take anything down?! They have nothing to take down. READ!

  “These companies,” in this case, being those sending the takedown requests.
