interesting that Comcast immediately directs the user to delete the file and doesn't even list an option to counter the claim. The trolls are constantly looking and probing for a weak spot, and with high probability they have just found another one - large stupid ISPs like Comcast. Now they only need to scare Comcast into automating the disconnections YouTube style and/or collecting the small settlement fee under the threat of disconnection (or for reconnection) and bingo - perpetuum mobile of a money printing machine.
That is interesting. Does the DMCA not require the takedown notice to inform of the right to file a counter-notice? I always assumed it did because that seems to be the usual practice. I wonder if Comcast is being unusually aggressive in their interpretation/lax in their compliance or whether most companies are going beyond what is required in their takedown notices?
From what I remember Comcast already has the "Sandvine" technology that automatically disconnects torrent clients. I have no idea if it is in use any longer.
