Some of my urls got reinstated today. But there is no content its a link. I have a blurred screen shot of a site. Some of the screen shots had no images on the page.

Now this is Fuckling Crazy.
A fucking search page with no results for exact term.
And this comes automatically, like if I lost some kind of trusted status.
I got this for several different terms, mostly noname models, but "solo-anal-fisting" and similar stuff as well..

WTF can I do?

Also starting to get take down requests for search results even though they do not display anything related to the search term.

Haven't seen the message you're getting, though over the last month or so I have also not been receiving any follow ups. Just the first email that acknowledges that they got the counter notice and then silence.

They don't seem to have much interest in re-instating promotional content, even though the DMCA take down notices themselves aren't legit.

In your case it looks like you reached the end of the line as far as dealing with Google directly.

Sucks.

My favorite DMCA reports are the ones that come in for pages with nothing on them, just usernames and basic information that aren't protected by any copyright law.

I run a site that scrapes live cam sites for basic user details like usernames, location, age, languages, and body decorations. Even though there isn't a single image or video of the user, they start flooding the report system with messages like, "This letter is the official notification under Section 512(c) of the Digital Millennium Copyright Act of 1998 (DMCA) and I request the immediate removal of the aforementioned infringing material from your servers."

Normally, I just click a button to remove these profiles immediately, but when someone is trying to be a smartass, I enjoy responding and asking for official documentation that their usernames are actually copyrighted. It's so funny to watch them lose their minds.

The report stated that the model, a couple actually, were active on Chaturbate, Stripchat, Bongacams, and Cam4, however, three of those profiles were either removed or banned, except for the one on Chaturbate, which has been abandoned for four years now.

Funny moments ;)
