Better have a good case and/or buy an insane law. The DMCA takedown process does allow me to file a counter-notification, stating that I believe (under penalty of perjury etc) that the identified material is not in infringement of copyright; and while there is no law that mandates some similarity metric for determining whether or not content set A is close enough to set B to be considered "infringing", I think it would be very difficult to demonstrate that all of the "posts" I've made by willfully infringing on copyrighted lyrics. (Nor would similarity really help you; you would need to prove that I willfully broke the law in composing every "post" I made, not just that A and B are similar if you apply some metric.) A counter-notification wouldn't be too hard to do.Vlad G Pohnert wrote:Then again maybe we can issue a DMCA to have every post you've ever made taken down from the internet becasue all your wording seems to close to many lyrics in songs and thus violates copyright law (i'm sure there is a law for that somewhere)trythil wrote:Contact the copyright holder of the anime and/or music in your video and get them to issue a DMCA takedown.I'm rather embarassed by several vids I made years ago and I'd feel better if some one could please tell me what I need to do in order to remove certain vids
It'll take down your videos -- and others -- but it does work. Worked for Wind-Up Records, anyway.
The catalog entry will still be around, though.
You can also submit a deletion request, but the DMCA route will probably be faster.![]()
