when nasty dollars hired an under age girl because she faked the id necessary
how many of the webmaster who published those pictures went to jail.
want an example of accidentally infringing
john steele honey pot bullshit, where he put gay porn under the names of popular tv shows, and music.

And what's fair use in terms of the law? Pirate Bay isn't fair use for sure.

then you should have any problem risking your copyright based on that accusation.
timeshifting has been validated to the cloud, it possible other fair uses will also be validated.

Here you have a valid point. Do you think a host would take down a website on the strength of an email? Simple solution is a registered letter, signed on delivery, from a lawyer in a legal firm as the first step.
I don't think it states what is the adequate notification. But defending yourself against someone who was wrongly accused and punished on the strength of only an email. Is pretty far fetched to bring down a website. They might remove a song, film or scene. But never a whole site.
Still this needs to be stated better in the law.

again if that what you believe you should have no problem risking your copyright on that complaint.
If the laws are good enough to prevent it, no judge will rubber stamp an order, you have nothing to worry about.
There are to many examples where that kind of shit has happened under the DMCA. So i don't have your "faith" it won't happen again.
