you ready for this mark? its a scilon gay-porn-peddlar called Oliver
Schaper who has created American Rights Counsel (ARC lol) and another
"company" whos name escapes me at the moment specifically to DMCA
critical videos and accounts, the Anonymous videos and accounts that
have been affected are just mirroring their videos on other accounts
and sites to avoid counter DMCA namefagging.
you should be cool to counter DMCA tho since your name is public
domain, there is no registration of either of the companies currently
DMCAing videos so it shouldnt be a problem for you to get your account
back since these companies hold no copyright to anything since they
are shells specifically for removing critical material
Jinkii
man, this is sick. Why does YouTube let these con artists get away
with this? Could it be because Scientology spends so much money with
them in advertising their bullshit "religion"? Regardless of the
reason that Youtube is so obviously blind to this nonsense, this is
definitely huge news.
Can someone please post links showing that American Rights Counsel is
owned by Scientology or a Scientologist? It would be nice to have
this information to present when complaining to Youtube about getting
Mark's account back up.
It can be difficult contacting Youtube about issues such as this, but

Michael Crook was this... um... person... that celebrated when US
soldiers were killed in Iraq. He was interviewed on Hannity and Colmes
and that video made it all over the interwebs and he filed fake DCMA
notices against websites to have it removed under the "safe harbor"
portion of the DMCA.
The EFF picked up the case and Crook lost. Might want to contact them
on this one.

You seem to be trying very hard to prove that many people who are -
actually- out there doing something are false critics, and that you
would seem to be the only genuine critic. Sounds either paranoid or
like a hidden agenda.

suppose.
lily is a well known scilon op, her aim here is to spread doubt,

Nobody has a right to control, why and with whom you are talking. (As
long as you do not break any constitutional laws of course, which you
do not, nor have I seen, you did.)
It is your right under the freedom of speech act and every democracy
has a kind of that act in their laws.
Only weak organisations or constitutions have a need to suppress
freedom of speech. It is always a sign of enervation, if a "power" does
so.
.Lily.
I'm seeing the same thing, from an outsider's perspective. It seems a
little bit too heavy handed. And regardless of her sincerity or lack
thereof, it's harmful to the "movement" when someone comes in and
tries to tell you not to trust your strongest allies! THAT alone makes
it highly suspect.

You might say that I'm not the brightest knife in the crayon box.
well, no matter -what- it is, there's some kind of ulterior motive
there. Frankly, I don't care what it is and I don't have the time or
the inclination to figure it out. I just don't want to deal with the
ins and outs of it.
If she's a rabid Scion-critic, great, at least her heart's in the

high-profile folks that she accuses. If she's OSA, see part 2 of

in France, fraudulent such accusations to close a website can send the
person up to one year behind bars. I could think to obtain such a measure
against a stupid cultist from another cult who attacked me before courts
some times ago (I should have the result of the trial very soon).

organization in a newsgroup is kind of like herding cats, lol!
I think that the best advice has been given, unless something was left
out.
Not legally liable, but Google'll look pretty stupid if they accept a mass
DMCA composed with crayon and drool from non-existent company.
And then the floodgates will open. Anyone who wants to can list the top
thousand videos on YouTube and take them down the same way. Rise. Repeat.
Perhaps not legally liable, true. But it at least deserves a mention
that they allow themselves to be jerked around by any fool with a
printer.
The thing I don't understand...
Youtube offers a mechanism to file a counterclaim:
http://www.google.com/support/youtube/bin/answer.py?hlrm=en-ch&answer=59826#dmca
However, Youtube itself doesn't provide sufficient information in the
first place to identify the complainant, its exact name, address, phone
number and email address, and a statement that the under penalty of
perjury that the person/corporation is allowed to file a copyright
complaint on behalf of the owner of the copyright.
http://www.cs.cmu.edu/~dst/Terrorism/form-letter.html
How can Youtube asks to file a DMCA counter notification if *no proper
notification* is filed in the first place?

Ray.
Apart from the fact it's not just about XenuTV, I think what he was
attempting to say is you are easily lead astray.
Look up the term "Dev T", see how Lily and Roadrunner apply it to you and
see how you fall for it every time.
There's nothing wrong with filling the newsgroup full of friendly chat
and banter but it's more than likely you'll end up in peoples' killfiles
along with Lily and RR.
There is a method of killfiling in google groups.
http://www.penney.org/ggkiller.html
Maybe you should try it and apply it to Lily and RR :-)
Anyway, back on subject. I don't think this has anything to do with the
fact that the Cult pays $ciTube a shedload of money. I think one
enterprising $cilon has found a new way of fucking people over and, as
usual, they're not being very subtle about it.
$ciTube will probably take this action on any DMCA notice just to cover
their arse and it's not up to them to check the veracity of the notice.
$ciTube's policy:

Copyright Infringement Notification
To file a copyright infringement notification with us, you will need to
send a written communication that includes substantially the following
(please consult your legal counsel or see Section 512(c)(3) of the
Copyright Act to confirm these requirements):
1. A physical or electronic signature of a person authorized to act on
behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed.
2. Identification of the copyrighted work claimed to have been
infringed, or, if multiple copyrighted works at a single online site are
covered by a single notification, a representative list of such works at
that site.
3. Identification of the material that is claimed to be infringing or
to be the subject of infringing activity and that is to be removed or
access to which is to be disabled, and information reasonably sufficient
to permit the service provider to locate the material. Providing URLs in
the body of an email is the best way to help us locate content quickly.
4. Information reasonably sufficient to permit the service provider to
contact the complaining party, such as an address, telephone number, and,
if available, an electronic mail address at which the complaining party
may be contacted.
5. A statement that the complaining party has a good faith belief that
use of the material in the manner complained of is not authorized by the
copyright owner, its agent, or the law.
6. A statement that the information in the notification is accurate,
and under penalty of perjury, that the complaining party is authorized to
act on behalf of the owner of an exclusive right that is allegedly
infringed.
Such written notice should be sent to our designated agent as follows:

LOL!
Google has the legal right to look stupid, of course. Not
suggesting it's good business practice, just that it is not relevant
to anything EFF might be doing.
Any liability that might exist is with the crayon and drool artiste,
rather than with Google/Youtube.

I wonder how many iterations of such a cycle would be needed to
convince Google/Youtube that maybe a bit of due diligence in
reviewing DMCA complaints makes good business sense, even if it is
not a legal obligation. Not that I'm suggesting anyone should fire
off a few hundred bogus complaints, of course.....
John

I believe that the problem occurs from the following:
DMCA Title II: Online Copyright Infringement Liability Limitation Act
DMCA Title II, the Online Copyright Infringement Liability Limitation
Act ("OCILLA"), creates a safe harbor for online service providers
(OSPs, including ISPs) against copyright liability if they adhere to
and qualify for certain prescribed safe harbor guidelines and promptly
block access to allegedly infringing material (or remove such material
from their systems) if they receive a notification claiming
infringement from a copyright holder or the copyright holder's agent.
OCILLA also includes a counter-notification provision that offers OSPs
a safe harbor from liability to their users, if the material upon
notice from such users claiming that the material in question is not,
in fact, infringing. OCILLA also provides for subpoenas to OSPs to
provide their users' identity.
As in the case of the Crook case, the ISP's chose to remove the
material first pending evidence or verification rather than risking
legal issues by leaving the material up. But I think the intent is
that it's considered to be a -temporary- block.
> it just seems a little bit futile to try to control a newsgroup
> conversation to me.
LOL.
They are controlling the conversation.
Have fun :-)
EFF senior IP attorney Fred von Lohmann: "Whether linking to
infringing materials can itself create copyright liability is still a
somewhat murky question. Some cases suggest that linking to material
you have reason to know is infringing (i.e., after the copyright owner
notifies you that the material you're linking to is infringing) can
give rise to liability (Intellectual Reserve v. Utah Lighthouse
Ministry), while other cases point the other way (Perfect 10 v.
Google). Of course, I think the latter cases have the better of the
argument. But one thing is clear -- the DMCA's 'safe harbors' for
online service providers (OSPs) give linkers a strong incentive to
remove links upon receiving a DMCA takedown notice, because if they do
so, they are protected from paying damages in any copyright
infringement case. That's one of the problems with the DMCA safe
harbors -- because OSPs have such a strong incentive to simply comply
with takedown notices, courts get fewer chances to decide the
underlying copyright questions, like whether linking to stuff on
YouTube is infringing. So things stay murky. "

This is more the source of the problem, I think.
Digital Millennium Copyright Act - 17 U.S.C. § 512
Sec. 512. - Limitations on Liability Relating to Material Online
(f) Misrepresentations. -
Any person who knowingly materially misrepresents under this section -
(1) that material or activity is infringing, or
(2) that material or activity was removed or disabled by mistake or
misidentification,
shall be liable for any damages, including costs and attorneys'
fees, incurred by the alleged infringer, by any copyright owner or

disabling access to the material or activity claimed to be
infringing, or in replacing the removed material or ceasing to
disable access to it.
*******
Someone like Mark has a potential claim for damages to his
reputation, I suppose, but that might well be mitigated by the fact
that he has previously infringed. Anons can't even claim damage to
their reputations. Not a great case for Mark, I don't think, even
worse for Anons.
Google/Youtube does incur real cost and loss of goodwill when they
act on bogus claims. If they chose to go after the bogus claimant,
that might actually have an impact on the filing of bogus claims.
But if the bogus claimant is outside the US, there is not likely to
be much Google/Youtube can do either.
Again, IANAL.

Do you know how Schaper was determined to be the source of the bogus
complaints? Is the determination strong enough to stand up in court?
John
I am presently having an exchange with a 'coordinator' at the EFF who so far
insists that, despite the fraudulent nature of the 'dmca filings' it is
still necessary to file the counter notice in order to have your bandwidth
back. If YouTube decides they want to. When they get around to it.
Then again the press could always get involved, and out the slime merchant
that's doing the work for the cult.

Unless OSA somehow stole the www.youtube.com/user/oschaper account
which has long been associated with him, I don't see how this wasn't
done with at least his acquiescence. A disgruntled message from him
appeared on this account earlier today before the account was yanked.
I don't really know this guy. He emailed me this morning to say it wasn't
him and he was sorry my account was taken down.
There was nothing on my YouTube notices that suggested the DMCA notices come
from him. I haven't had time to follow all the threads on this. What's the
basis for believing they do?
I was e-mailed that the DMCA notices came from a non-existant
group called American Rights Coucil LLC.
I'm not sure how this guy connects, but I have read his name in more
than one post.
Glad you're site is back up~ :)

The more I look at it, the more the evidence isn't very rock solid. I
still think it's probably him. He has been comment stalking a bunch
of people on YouTube for several weeks and got thrown off
Enturbulation. He's been making a variety of crackpot legal threats
and signing himself "Esq." and describing himself as a lawyer, though
there's no indication he's licensed to practice law anywhere in the
world.
DMCA notifications have come from "American Rights Counsel LLC,"
"Media House Enterprises," "Dr. Oliver Schaper," and a couple other
names. "Media House Enterprises, Inc." is the parent company of
"Peephole.TV," a porn distribution company run by Schaper, and
described in this Wikipedia article, if you get to it before it's
speedy deleted: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Peephole.TV
However, anyone who would commit perjury thousands of times in a
single 24 hour period would probably lie about who they are, too. So
it could be a particularly adept troll who has stolen his identity to
perpetrate these acts.
Of course, it could be Oliver Schaper himself, who is a lying fraud,
and who, if he did do this, would have every reason in the world to
deny having done it. There's nothing rock solid so far. I don't
think that he did it is a particularly bad operating assumption,
though.
This dope appears to be claiming credit. But who knows who is telling the
truth.

IANAL, but this fiasco involves multiply counts of perjury under
Federal law in making the false DMCA complaints. In which case I
would think the Feds would be all over this with subpoenas for the
records to track down where they actually came from if it were
reported to them.
Has anyone done so?

You speculate on what the youtube TOS might contain. Did it ever
occur to you to *read* the TOS?

So far as I can tell, nobody. At least nobody has made any specific
statements to the effect that they've contacted anyone who could or
would do anything in this regard, and I wouldn't assume they will. I
also wouldn't assume the Feds would do jack-shit.
IMO the false claims of copyright are themselves a copyright
infringement and could be tracked using the DMCA subpoena provisions.
That's not advice, but OTOH if I had anything taken down in this way,
I'd have done it on the same day by walking five minutes to the
federal courthouse down the street.
It's pretty likely the perp(s) used the Content Verification Tool on
YouTube to do this, considering the vast number of "infringements"
reported. To get access to that, someone has to send in a fax. That
would probably be useful in identifying someone, unless they
fraudulently altered the caller info required by law to be on the fax.
But if it's purely electronic, the logs are going to go away soon if
nobody does anything. Then this just becomes another story that
critics tell with no factual basis to it. Considering the identities
used, though, it is either Oliver Schaper or someone going to a lot of
effort to pin it on him.
Yeah. Why do you ask?
John
