Now that you've been called out publicly...

What are you doing about all the other bogus DMCA claims you company has sent (itself or via its external contractors)?

What are you doing to ensure this never happens again?

Why should we believe your answers, and how can we see concrete evidence that you've stopped doing this and made up for all the times you've done it in that past?

Multiple commenters asked him this and he never replied. Disappointing but not surprising. It's all just superficial hand waving. They are sorry but only for bring caught.

It would be interesting to know, in comparison, how high the fees are to the company that sends the DMCA takedown requests

And how much it costs to defend oneself against such a request
