Law Prof. Fights NFL Over DMCA

Visiting Brooklyn Law Professor Wendy Seltzer posted a video clip on YouTube of the copyright notice placed on the Super Bowl by the NFL. The NFL sent a DMCA takedown notice, and YouTube pulled the clip. Seltzer then sent a counter-notification, and the clip was replaced. Then the NFL sent another takedown, and the clip was again removed. Seltzer writes that this puts the NFL into the 512(f)(1) category of “knowingly materially misrepresent[ing] ... that material or activity is infringing.”
