Abuse maybe, but illegal? No.
Its kinda like sending a “cease and desist” letter with a lawyer’s letterhead (usually an empty threat) but with the automoderation system in place about copyrighted works it winds up being up to the person defending themself from the claim to do the work to prove fair use instead of the person making the claim of infringement.
I’m like 90% sure the form says “under penalty of perjury I confirm that these statements are accurate and true.”
Sure there’s words there but are they actually legally actionable? Like something in an EULA that says, we reserve the right to delete this from your hardware if you don’t sent us a cookie every six months. Its there… but it doesn’t matter.
It’s literally perjury so yes
Not everything in a contract would be allowed to be enforced by law… so no.
Try writing a contract that includes voluntary cannibalism, let it get out to the public, and see if the police just let that slide.
Okay you know what? YOU look up the DMCA and what a DMCA takedown order requires.
Fair… I’m pretty sure I was being needlessly evasive/pedantic.
The original DMCA wording was very very harsh when it came to frivolous fillings. Hopefully it won’t shock you to believe that it’s rarely enforced and almost never enforced for large Corpos.
