SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

It helps you prepare a legally structured DMCA (17 U.S.C. §512) takedown notice, triage an incoming takedown, or draft a §512(g) counter-notice with the required perjury and jurisdiction gates.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Draft a §512(c)(3) takedown: Collect work and infringing-material identifiers, walk the fair-use (Lenz) consideration gate, and ensure the good-faith and accuracy/perjury elements are present before output.
  • Triage an incoming takedown: Extract key fields from the notice, assess license/authorization, fair use (Lenz factors), and whether the notice is defective, then recommend comply/counter/engage/ignore.
  • Draft a §512(g)(3) counter-notice: Confirm the correct predicate (removal in response to a §512 notice), apply the consent-to-federal-jurisdiction gate, and produce counter-notice content that matches statutory elements.

Quick Start

Run /ip-legal:takedown --send to draft a §512(c)(3) takedown notice using your provided work and incoming content details.

FAQPage Schema
How do I draft a DMCA takedown notice that meets 17 USC 512 requirements?

To draft a DMCA takedown notice, you must identify the copyrighted work, locate the infringing material, pass a fair-use consideration gate, and include statutory good-faith and perjury statements. This Skill structures element-by-element drafting for attorney review.

What should I do if I received a DMCA takedown notice and want to dispute it?

If you received a DMCA takedown notice, you can draft a §512(g)(3) counter-notice by confirming the removal predicate, applying the federal jurisdiction consent gate, and matching statutory elements. You can also triage the incoming notice for defects or fair-use exemptions.

Does a DMCA counter-notice require consent to federal jurisdiction?

Yes, a DMCA counter-notice requires explicit consent to federal jurisdiction. The §512(g)(3) counter-notice drafting process enforces this statutory gate alongside perjury statements before generating output content for attorney review.

How does fair use factor into sending a DMCA takedown notice?

Fair use is evaluated using Lenz factors before sending a DMCA takedown notice. The drafting workflow includes an explicit fair-use consideration gate to ensure good-faith compliance with statutory requirements under 17 USC §512(c)(3).

Can I check if an incoming DMCA notice is defective?

You can triage an incoming DMCA notice for defects by extracting key fields, assessing license authorization, evaluating fair use, and checking if statutory elements are missing. The Skill then recommends whether to comply, counter, engage, or ignore.
