Assuming we go with the “Its not our fault, the computer tagged them” excuse, then I’d have to ask…

1.) OK, the computer is automatically tagging these files, but… Couldn’t the humans who programmed it be a little more specific in what constitutes a match? Wouldn’t having match criteria being so broad as basically saying
if(file.name==”*.mp3″)
then send.DMCA-Alert
basically be “deliberate lies” via proxy? In other words, they knew they were going to take out a ton of stuff that wasn’t theirs, and did nothing to prevent it.

2.) Considering the documentation that exists on how poor the automated scanners are (see the nearly weekly “Google refuses DMCA requests to legit sources” reports, the bird songs that got tagged twice till the issue went viral, etc)… Couldn’t the EFF also argue Warner Bro knew there system was not working well, and by not having a human review the automated results, or at least not trying to tweak their filters to weed out false positives, that they should be held capable for their requests.

They broke the law, now let them pay for it, DOGS.

They make you laugh, they believe they can issue false DMCA take down notices whilst also staying within the law.

They are the criminals.

Globalist thieves.

“Lawmakers need to hear about how well the system is actually working…” Congress has the power of subpoena.

WB purchased or made the program.
WB examined, authorized & implemented the program.
WB upon finding out that the program was filing false notices, did not either repair or shut down the program.
Even if WB didn’t specifically target things they don’t own, they most certainly are responsible for the abuse caused by their equipment.
