These DMCA 3rd parties work for what 1st parties? The content producers/owners or the sponsor program owners?
I agree mate, hence the thread. Problem is, most programs aren't aware of the headaches the 3rd parties are causing. I work fairly closely with my sponsors, due to the nature of my methods, so I don't get *too* many problems these days, though obviously do get them from time to time.

I've had to drop sponsors in the past due to over-zealous dmca agents, and I highly doubt I'm the only one - and I'm certainly not in the higher bracket of traffic owners, so fuck knows how much legit traffic is being shitcanned overall.

This is part rant - albeit it a very mild one, part heads-up to programs, and part seeing if any dmca agents will chime in (not sure if any actually frequent here though), to see if some dialogue can be opened and get them singing from the same hymn sheet as programs & affiliates.

...Also I gotta stress, in case it isn't clear, that I have zero 'problem' with sponsors utilising dmca agents.
