Just curious, does saidit have an official policy on handling and/or disputing DMCA complaints, in particular invalid DMCA complaints?
Reason I ask is that many social networking/discussion type sites receive tons of DMCA notices and not all of them are valid. Many are generated in the hopes that the result is a takedown even if the DMCA notice itself wouldn't hold up if challenged.
For example the recent DMCA issues over at Reddit actually involve many notices that aren't really valid but Reddit opted not to dispute them
https://www.reddit.com/r/Piracy/comments/b28d9q/rpiracy_has_received_a_notice_of_multiple/eitku9s
Simply asking if a site is down, simply linking a website, simply mentioning the name of a file alleged to be pirated content, etc. those things aren't actually in violation of DMCA. Would a site like saidit be in a position to dispute notices that aren't actually valid or would it end up going ahead with removing content similar to what Reddit is doing?
Admittingly it's a tricky task, sites like Youtube deal with these things on a massive scale e.g.
https://www.bbc.com/news/technology-42580523
https://www.theverge.com/2019/2/11/18220032/youtube-copystrike-blackmail-three-strikes-copyright-violation
Just curious how saidit plans to handle those things when they come up, or if there is a plan.
EDIT: Just to be clear it's probably a stretch to allow direct links to alleged pirated content if saidit is vulnerable to DMCA. I'm thinking about more general stuff outside direct linking.
