Unless the e-mail is to the contact on file with the FCC, it isn't an official DMCA take down request, so the request is garbage. ----- Mike Hammett Intelligent Computing Solutions Midwest Internet Exchange The Brothers WISP ----- Original Message ----- From: "Daniel Corbe" <dcorbe@hammerfiber.com> To: "Eric Kuhnke" <eric.kuhnke@gmail.com>, "nanog@nanog.org list" <nanog@nanog.org> Sent: Sunday, August 5, 2018 2:43:36 PM Subject: Re: Best practices on logical separation of abuse@ vs dmca@ role inboxes On 8/4/2018 01:04:17, "Eric Kuhnke" <eric.kuhnke@gmail.com> wrote:
If you were setting up something new from a clean sheet of paper design - do you consider it appropriate to have an abuse role inbox that's dedicated to actual network abuse issues (security problems, DDoS, IP hijacks, misbehavior of downstream customers, etc), and keep that separate from DMCA notifications?
Automated sorting tools *can* pull things which match regexes for automatically-generated DMCA notifications out of an inbox and route them to the appropriate place.
However, I'm pondering whether it's better to have an ISP's ARIN IP space whois entries state clearly that copyright violation type notices should go to a dedicated-purpose dmca@ispname inbox.
The main issue with the notion of keeping abuse@ separate from a dedicated DMCA takedown mailbox is companies like IP Echelon will just blindly E-mail whatever abuse POC is associated with either the AS record or whichever POCs are specifically associated with the NET block. So it becomes kind of difficult to keep them routing to different places. The guys doing the DMCA takedowns use automated tooling. So asking them nicely isn't going to help you.
