Incident #A027A2 · 26 NOV 2025minor
Copyright notification may now, not will, be forwarded to the poster
A sentence about DMCA-style notifications changed from saying a copy of the notification 'will be sent' to the person who posted the material to 'may be sent'. The sentence also appears under a heading renamed from 'Counter Notification' to 'Notifications'. This makes forwarding discretionary rather than guaranteed.
Taken from you
- Guarantee that the poster of challenged material receives a copy of the notification against it
Won back
- Complainants' notifications are no longer certain to be passed to the person they target, which may offer them more discretion
