The lesson of this story is to avoid making more DMCA-like opportunities for legal abuse:

> This is why those of us who spend our time in the weeds of internet law won’t shut up about how legal liability systems are structured. The DMCA’s notice-and-takedown framework already gives bad actors a weapon to suppress speech. You don’t need a legitimate copyright claim. You don’t even need a coherent one. You just need to file the paperwork and wait for an automated system to do its thing.

> And every time someone proposes weakening Section 230, or creating new obligations for platforms to proactively police third-party content, or imposing liability for hosting material that someone claims is harmful — they are, whether they realize it or not, proposing to hand bad actors this same kind of weapon in a dozen new calibers. The DMCA is the version of this we already have, and we can see plainly how it gets abused. We should be fixing the current system, and punishing the widespread abuses, rather than spreading that same broken incentive structure to every other area of online speech.
