@14, 17, 33 — Yes, to clarify, our mistake was that we removed content that was not the subject of a DMCA notification. We’ve taken steps to make sure this doesn’t happen again. And we apologize for this mistake and for the confusion it caused.
@ 28, 35 — We agree that it’s not good practice to remove content from Residents’ inworld and inventory locations without notifying them. That’s not our DMCA policy or practice. Our practice is to send email to the email address we have on file for the owners of the content that’s to be removed. So it shouldn’t be a surprise when content disappears as the result of a DMCA claim. The disappearance of content this past weekend without notice was our mistake. It’s not our DMCA policy or practice. Again, we’re sorry about its happening and have implemented internal processes to protect against its happening again.
@54 — If your content was subject to a DMCA notification sent to Linden Lab, we would have sent you email to your email address on file for your account. Check that email address. You may also send questions about your content and the DMCA process to removals@lindenlab.com.
@65 — Questions about the status of DMCA claims submitted to us may be sent to removals@lindenlab.com. You might check whether these creators submitted claims as abuse reports or through the DMCA process outlined here: Second Life | DMCA: Digital Millennium Copyright Act. DMCA claims must be submitted through the DMCA process (and not as abuse reports).
@2 — This information is not intended to scare Residents. As we know well from our mistake this past weekend, content removal is a serious matter. It’s an extremely important tool for copyright owners to remedy infringement. But before proceeding, it’s important to understand any competing rights and interests. The different viewpoints in the comments to this blog post show well that there are interests on all sides of content removal. Thanks, everyone, for contributing your thoughts.
