We will take action regarding a copyright claim within a reasonable passing of business hours. We say allow up to 2 business days, but typically they are actioned within hours. If you sent a DMCA notice via PM, this would also be something we are unable to address. The law itself gives strict procedures service providers must follow. This includes submissions being made to to designated DMCA agent by the means described. Since N A T has already volunteered the information, she has utilized the process, and in the same post also vouched for our swift actions. Of course I would not otherwise have used her as an example had she not already stated it herself. So I would have to send a letter to the office and give my personal information? No thanks. Glad I removed all my stuff. Or an email yes. This is not something we have made up, but part of the process. If you search for DMCA guidelines for other companies you will see it is the same thing. For example Twitter, while in a differnt format, require the same information and statements as our own. support.twitter.com/forms/dmca They even also advise you to contact an attorney. It sounds as though you have a problem with the law, not our policies

I just don't find it worth giving out my personal information for a report for a free online website, despite which one. And like I said before, the time of the incident which would have been reported is far gone and is not worth hassling over now, including the other four similar incidents.

I understood one of your earlier posts as saying that I was mistaken in saying that we action reports of copyright violations. Given that we do, I wanted to explain that we can only deal with fully formed reports.

And point made, you can only deal with fully formed reports sent via email or by mail.

Given that we do, I wanted to explain that we can only deal with fully formed reports. I am assuming you mean this: That was a question, not a statement. And point made, you can only deal with fully formed reports sent via email or by mail. The section of the DMCA that is being referenced here is the Online Copyright Infringement Liability and Limitation Act (mouthful, I know). Basically it's the law that protects service providers, like ProBoards, from being liable for copyright violations made by their subscribers, so long as they appropriately handle any and all lawful infringement notifications. It does not grant full immunity; it only protects them while they follow the instructions set down by the law. There's a really good example of the Take Down/Put Back procedure (which ProBoards would be following) here on Wikipedia. Read over that real quick and it should put Martyn's post into perspective. ProBoards are not judge/jury because they are not the court. They follow the take down/put back procedure set before them. You then bring this to court if that is not sufficient (read: the unlikely event your legitimate take down request is responded to with a counter-notice by the aggressor). It is then that a judgement is made. ProBoards never has to judge; they simply have to act when all of the pieces of the puzzle, as laid out by the law, come together.

Glad I removed all my stuff. Personal information is merely required because it's an actual law enforcement act. The information won't be given out to anyone but is only used specific to the case. Filing a claim takes maybe about 30 minutes tops, and they usually take under a day to get back to you. At least that is how it has been for me so far.
