As more and more comment filings to the Copyright Office about the DMCA process are being released, there's increasing evidence that the legacy entertainment industry's claims are, simply, full of shit.

Undoubtedly, many takedown requests are just crap. However, the person responsible (here A K A Stone) ignores the takedown request at his own peril.

If he personally lacks the ability to make a professional legal determination regarding whether a request meets the required legal standard, he can comply, consult a lawyer, or take his chances.

If his personal liability is not shielded via incorporation, the liability may extend to his personal assets.

In any case, the expense of litigation may be a determinative factor in whether to fight or not.

On one of the threads here very recently, I noticed some mention of the Nevada case where many bogus takedown requests were made. Stephens Media and the newspaper (The Las Vegas Review-Journal) did not do the deed directly, but there was a pretense of a seperate corporate entity (Righthaven LLC) that obtained the rights to legally pursue copyright claims for damages. It worked somewhat successfully as a shakedown against people with small sites who could not afford to litigate. Dizzy with their limited success, they branched out to FR, Drudge and DU et al. DU and others, aided by the Electronic Freedom Frontier (EFF) responded with a countersuit and crushed them.

For Righthaven, see: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Righthaven
