Subject: Re: [IP] copyright takedown experiment

Gosh, I find this heartening as it points the way to an interesting solution that might perfectly invert ISP response. If ISPs were suddenly deluged by bogus claims of infringement and started taking down all sorts of material, it would create a crisis that would swing ISP behavior in the opposite direction. No one would dare take anything down without overwhelming proof of infringement, regardless of how legitimate the claimant's title/company sounded. IP monkeywrenchers get to work!
