themafia: For corporations it's an honor system.For the lowly users it's strike first ask questions later.
josephcsible: I wish this kind of behavior were punishable under the "reckless disregard for the truth" doctrine. (And also that perjury for lying on DMCAs was better enforced in general.)
carefree-bob: We really need to reform DMCA, for example require posting a bond if a challenge is disputed.
conartist6: moar, moar, moarif they aren't feeling the pain they cause they'll never fix it
hsbauauvhabzb: It does need it, but who would do that? It’s not a public enough issue that the average voter would care, and the people who abuse dmca will inevitably be large companies.
hsbauauvhabzb: Googles position on this is the risk of ignoring a DMCA/copywrite report is that they get sued, which is understandable. Even if you can/could countersue a fictitious report, it would be cost prohibitive.I just wish the law would enable ignoring of continued false claims. Once your name is burnt, you should have a harder time reporting things in future.
whizzter: I really hope NVidia takes this to court and manages to sue them for a ridiculous amount that sets a precedent.
