The SymPy/HackerRank DMCA Incident
I believe that a real DMCA takedown (not the copyright notice used by youtube) needs the following two clauses:"I have a good faith belief that use of the copyrighted materials described above on the infringing web pages is not authorized by the copyright owner, or its agent, or the law."and"I swear, under penalty of perjury, that the information in this notification is accurate and that I am the copyright owner, or am authorized to act on behalf of the owner, of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed."This takedown does not seem to have been in good faith or accurate, if only because of the following:> The notice also stated “the infringing website is not willing to remove our client's work”, which came as a surprise to us since, at no point in time prior to receiving this notice had we received any communications from HackerRank or WorthIT Solutions.Are there any consequences against whomever at WorthIT signed the DMCA request? If not, how come?
