I'm not following what you're saying. I'm not talking about making bogus complaints, and I'm not talking about protecting Pirate Bay.

It sounds like we're on different pages.

Yes, I think sites should be penalized for submitting bogus complaints. No, I don't think their copyrights should become public domain when that happens. That doesn't accomplish anything but devaluing people's work. Do you think that would benefit you somehow?
