Those are good ideas, but the first one should have been:
- Nothing at all happens until a unbiased court issues an injunction.
In other words, the process that was in place before the DMCA was passed.
- A company that files a fraudulent request loses DMCA rights (that way, it doesn't have to be proven repeatedly, just once)
- Liability for false takedowns w/ punitive damages, criminal liability with actual enforcement for malicious attempts or even negligence. Potentially a deposit requirement once a false claim has been made.
