Scientology Massive Onslaught of DMCA Takedown Notices

Share on Tumblr

The Cult Church of Scientology sent out over 4000 takedown notices to YouTube makeing all sorts of copyright infringement claims against content which is critical of the Cult Church. The irony of this to me is that the DMCA notices were sent by American Rights Council LLC. This should see completely wrong to every American that a company named “American Rights” so flagrantly abuses the law to take away those rights. There have to be at least a few of those notices that are false, and as such, violate the laws of purgery, or liable, or something? Could someone who is a lawyer please grow some balls and make this their pet project?

Over a period of twelve hours, between this Thursday night and Friday morning, American Rights Counsel LLC sent out over 4000 DMCA takedown notices to YouTube, all making copyright infringement claims against videos with content critical of the Church of Scientology. Clips included footage of Australian and German news reports about Scientology, A Message to Anonymous/Scientology , and footage from a Clearwater City Commission meeting. Many accounts were suspended by YouTube in response to multiple allegations of copyright infringement.

YouTube users responded with DMCA counter-notices. At this time, many of the suspended channels have been reinstated and many of the videos are back up. Whether or not American Rights Counsel, LLC represents the notoriously litigious Church of Scientology is unclear, but this would not be the first time that the Church of Scientology has used the DMCA to silence Scientology critics. The Church of Scientology DMCA complaints shut down the YouTube channel of critic Mark Bunker in June, 2008. Bunker
