What is the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA)?

As the internet has matured, legislation has played an increasingly important role in determining what ends up online. An important piece of early internet copyright legislation is the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA), passed in 1998. The DMCA is known for several provisions. One criminalizes attempts to circumvent digital rights management (DRM) access control measures. Another provides a mechanism-known as a takedown notice-allowing copyright owners to request that copyrighted content made available illegally online be removed. The DMCA also provides safe harbor provisions exempting websites and internet service providers from liability if their users post copyrighted material. The DMCA has been criticized repeatedly since its inception, mainly by groups concerned with its chilling effects on consumer freedoms, competition, and free speech.

    The way I see DMCA, it was meant to actually help people but all it's accomplished is giving big labels and corporations a way to bypass fair use.

    are these personally sent to you? or does it come up on everyone's search results? In response to multiple complaints that we received under the US Digital Millennium Copyright Act, we have removed 7 results from this page. If you wish, you may read the DMCA complaints that caused the removals at LumenDatabase.org: Complaint, Complaint, Complaint, Complaint, Complaint. (showing at the bottom of my page?

    I have a question. Can Fan-art be flagged or lawfully removed by DMCA even if I drew everything by hand? I make pop art characters into zombies and skulls. I change the color, the clothing, make my own version.

    I think that in this case, you are the content creator and have full copyright on your version of the content, however you may have to mention the original content that inspired your work. Same kind of laws that work on covers. Did you get a clear answer since you posted this? I'd be curious to know :)

    It's literally stupid and when it was announced on the news the reporters were saying it was ridiculous. It's only because of zoomers being fooled by meemaw and grandpa politics that we're in this mess now. Nobody took this seriously until 20 years after the year 2000

    I have a simple question: This website moridim.tv in Israel is selling movies and series that are available to download. To purchase any of the downloads the user is forwarded to this www.nitrobit.net based in the UK where can make the payment. www.nitrobit.net on their website claims that its acting according to the DMCA terms. Are this websites respecting the copyright laws ? I don't think their payment any copyright rights.
