Thank you for stating the obvious?
Seriously, did no one else here read the source article? Because I’m getting the feeling that everyone just wants to vent about these alerts without actually discussing the specific issue AT&T’s notice brings up.
Listen, Torrentfreak stated (and Cory appears to have believed it, seemingly without having checked the DMCA himself) that “there is no law or regulation requiring [AT&T] to [terminate the accounts of repeat offenders.]”
That appears to be wholly unsupported by the DMCA Section 512.
And there’s nothing at all here about acting on accusations rather than evidence, or not giving users the opportunity to defend themselves from such charges. So please, hijack someone else’s discussion or wait for an opportunity when that’s what we’re actually talking about.
