Tech Blocking DMCA bots

[bns666]

Is there a way to block DMCA bots and do they respect robots.txt rules?

Anyone got a list to share?

Thanx.

Maybe just don't be a fucking pirate.

DCMA bots crawl Google, not your site. Because all DCMA notices contain a list of sites and URLs that contain "pirated" content - not just yours alone.

Am I wrong?

How 'bout just don't be a fucking pirate!

Yea DMCA crawls search engines, not the sites themselves.

These fuckin bots took down my post (model review) without any images or videos. It ranked for camgirl nickname and that's all. Nickname is not a trade mark so i don't understand why my text post was removed

Because Google always sides with the person/entity filing the DMCA notice. Always. Literally, always.

You have to counter it, then wait 10-30 days.

I used to ask other webmasters to help me out to fight this, but they never did anything besides post threads on adult forums going "how is this possible?"

oh well i guess

I would not rely on robots.txt for this. Better to keep clean ownership/release records, watermark or fingerprint your previews, track where each clip goes, and be ready with counter-notice material when a bad takedown hits. Blocking bots alone does not solve the Google side.

you can send counter, but after some weeks they will send dmca again, and another problem, after many dmcas your website get ghosted on google search engine, its not going to rank anymore.

The only solution for it is lawsuit. But these bastards aren't from the US, they're European companies in places like Curaçao.They send fake DMCAs because they know no one will sue them.
