(S...Techdirt ran an article on this a few days ago. (See <A HREF="http://techdirt.com/articles/20070322/200545.shtml" REL="nofollow">[techdirt.com]</A> for more info.)<BR/><BR/>Viacom are technically correct that they didn't send the DMCA notice. The notice was sent from BayTSP, a company who specialize in online copyright enforcement. And one of the companies that has hired BayTSP is... you guessed it, Viacom.<BR/><BR/>So while it wasn't Viacom themselves who sent the notice, it was an agent who was hired by and acting on behalf of Viacom. It will be interesting to see the outcome of the court case, and we can only hope that the judge is smart enough to punish Viacom/BayTSP for sending out spurious takedown notices.Jamie Andersonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07679584690515207277noreply@blogger.com
