    Business The rapid rise of false DMCA complaints

    The rapid rise of false DMCA complaints is getting insane.
    In my opinion these are mostly DMCA companies profiting of every DMCA complaints and secondly performers without any knowledge about IP / contracts and sometimes everything else in life.
    All these complaints fuck up your SEO listings and cost a lot of time and money to counter fight, if possible.

    At first the system was working. Now it's totally broke. The amount of false claims is way higher than 50% now, something like 95% false for us!

    What's your experience and how do you fight this back?

      I hear you. One of my sites is a user submitted site and I got a dmca complaint to take down multiple images over many pages.

      It was time consuming. Only to find out months later that it was fake. The owners of the content emailed me asking why I took their stuff down, as they had never requested I do so. They didn't even know what a dmca was!

      I have no idea why someone would take the time to mess with another website(s) that has no real basis in reality.

      But I am getting tired of it.

          I've been getting quite a few lately.

          Some dumb bitch from only fans flat said the homepage of one of our sites was infringing on her. It had zero of her works. She's not a webcam model. I figured out who she was and appealed to her to do the right thing and rescind the complaint. She told me to GFY. So I let her know, I have a lawyer, and if I have to go that route I'm not stopping. She would be sued for filing a false dmca and we'd get our lost revenue $xx,xxx over the 10 business days to get it reinstated via Google's route, plus lawyers fees, and court costs. Either rescind or it's going to happen and we will post about it all over forums, Reddit, GFY, etc. She quickly rescinded the complaint and we were back in Google an hour later.

          It's pretty fucking lame because her example of works stolen and her example of where it was on our site didn't add up to shit. Any ass hat could have noticed, this content isn't on this site or it's homepage.

              Most likely it was your competition that ranked behind you in Google.

                      That's what I initially thought too.

                          My experience is that I do not care. Sites paying for those services that are attacking legitimate webmasters don't deserve to be promoted. It is frustrating and irritating but that's only me.

                              Until people start filing suits against models/creators this will not change.

                              White labeling works for a time but often falls off and is forgotten.

                                  I am spending 6h a month sending counter dmcas to google. Annoying, but everything gets reinstated.

                                      How would an affiliate go about this? The agent is the point of contact but undoubtedly the model will have never provided a real name or valid address.

                                      Say I was to issue a small claims for losses to a model that I knew resided in my jurisdiction, but didn't know real name or address, only DMCA agent as point of contact?

                                                      Thanks for sharing the articles Freeones. For now I think we need to continue sending counter notifications, and hopefully someday the false DMCA senders will get penalized for it.

                                                          It's not a small claims case. Its US federal law so it should be filed in US federal court.

                                                          The best way would be for a group of interested plaintiffs (affiliates, program owners ect) to join together, chose a lead plaintiff, split the costs and hire an attorney to file the lawsuit. It's not a class action so to speak since there would be no class but merely a sharing of costs.

                                                          I believe there is an attorney fee provision in the DMCA so that if you win you can recover any attorneys fees spent.

                                                          However, be careful who you chose as a defendant so that they have deep enough pockets that you can actually collect.

                                                          There's no penalty provision in the law for companies that file false DMCAs. This is why they act with complete disregard for the law. The person or company that caused the false DMCA to be filed is the responsible party.

                                                          The plaintiffs would subpoena the information on the models name from the DMCA takedown company and they would have to provide all the information they have on their client.

                                                          You could try to name the DMCA company as a defendant but they would probably be quickly dismissed from the case but you might be able to cost them the attorneys fees to file the dismissal which might motivate them to change their policies.

                                                                  They have another website in the contact email for the reports.

                                                                  https://takedown.company/

                                                                  Several years ago the same thing happened with Mareafeat, at that time I investigated them and they had not even paid the company renewal fee in Belize at that time, so they where sending the reports from an inactive company and the reports are always in the name of a girl from Kyrgyzstan or something like that.

If the DMCA company represents a model named Jenna Jameson, they DMCA random pages with the word Jenna Jameson even if there are no pictures or videos on the page. Google often notices these reports are fake and refuses to remove the pages even though they are listed on Lumen.

                                                                                                  It cost me thousands because I built up organic searches throughout the years and bought traffic from PlugRush, among others.

                                                                                                  Google defaults to the claim owner and de-lists the page that is infringing.

                                                                                                  I can handle a few DMCA notices, but when it comes to thousands, I give up because of the time and effort I need to put into it. The time is better spent elsewhere in my day to make money.

                                                                                                  I think affiliate programs should have a whitelist of domains that are affiliates so that their lawyers and automated bots can stop DMCA notices.

                                                                                                  All the money I invested into https://www.kernel-video-sharing.com/en/ sucks because of these DMCA notices where I am sending pure organic searches back to my affiliates.

                                                                                                                      They are just keying on some target words and names.

                                                                                                                      You can't say, "The former OnlyFans star crossed over to the adult industry and is now gaping out her ass," because the DMCA bot will pick that up even though you are promoting the affiliate program.

                                                                                                                      If you want to block the IPs from DMCA notices and other bad bots, here is a fucking huge list. You will need a top-end VPS or dedicated server to add the list to your CSF deny list. The list is updated every two hours.

Rely on " dodgy" sources and you get what you deserve. Our DMCA service took down over 1,000 our pirated videos ( in about 3 months) and it did not get a single counterclaim.

                                                                                                                                                      ... and to Freeones: if you pay less attention if the model is named, and more attention to where the stuff comes from you would save yourself a lot of agro. Here is a simple advice: If it is watermarked ( a picture) or a video clip ( also watermarked) lets say 5 min or less, nobody will complain ( hey, we all like free adverts). But, if it is NOT watermarked, its likely stolen. I had my own experience with Freeones some time ago. To make a point: Somebody posted a bunch of our watermarked pictures ( we thought great ;) free adds) , but your Mods took them down as spam. So, a few days later same bunch of the same pictures got posted, but cropped to delete the watermark, and these were not removed. So we got pissed off and fired of DMCA take down.

All just get paid for number of dmca's so send them based on search results.

                                                                                                                                                                              for example (I know you get it Emma), a cammer on cb or wherever or a porn performer opens an OF

                                                                                                                                                                              they hire one of the several previously discussed shady DMCA co's, paying them to protect his/her content from pirates

                                                                                                                                                                              these shady DMCA co's (there are a few good ones, sadly not the norm) use bots to search the net for any mention of the performer's name. completely absent context

                                                                                                                                                                              two things happen as a result:

                                                                                                                                                                              1) legit affs of porn/cam sites using legit affiliate images/film snippets (porn) or embeds of cam site chatrooms (camming) get warrantless DMCAs

                                                                                                                                                                              2) the shady DMCA co's then turn to the performer that hired them and says "wow, look how much we found. pay us more for a higher scanning package so we can find even more than your current URL limit!"


                                                                                                                                                                              pisses me off cuz it robs from performers, gives us a bad name and fucks with the income of legit affs using legit promo tools. I'm on both sides in terms of adult-oriented work so no foot in one camp


                                                                                                                                                                              I hate piracy, I've been subject to it myself on the performer side of adult. never been served a DMCA as an aff...yet

                                                                                                                                                                              some of these companies are total parasites. the performers are not to blame, these bullshit companies are

All pages had a clear link to their affiliate program, still, I've got a DMCA.

There are no other pictures or banners with content of this model (MODELNAME) or other models illegal taken on my site and have never been there before.

                                                                                                                                                                                                  Since all models on Chaturbate have to agree with the TOS of Chaturbate, all the models have no right to claim a DMCA notice if the site only shows the live feed from the Chaturbate API, that also counts for complainer MODELNAME.

                                                                                                                                                                                                  So I hereby ask you to declare this complaint unfounded and not to remove my site or this url from Google.
