Re: DMCA

["John K. Lerchey" <lerchey () ANDREW CMU EDU>]

We suspend network access for the reportedly infringing IP.  Restores 
are handled by appropriate staff based on affiliation.  Student Life, 
for example makes decisions on when a student machine is restored.

We currently default to a 45 day suspension, but it is almost always 
much shorter for the rare cases of staff or faculty machines.

We process these "by hand", but using a system that automates the 
network suspend/restore actions, and automatically sends email.
