I got a damn DMCA Notice

[TheTorrentSeller]

It was regarding a whole section in my forum

it looks damn serious , my host asked me to delete the whole section , and no other options , my site hosted in UK , will a hong kong offshore host can help me ignoring that message ?

the damn email isn't as the usual ones , I donno what to do , it's just a section similar to many others , the section is for an author for Business Products , that teach Business site owners some ways to do to promote their sites , and each product worth Ks of $$

if I just deleted that section , I will get other messages to delete other section , and in the end , I have to get my site down

damn , the site just got some nice traffic , and nice members

can't get it down like that

what u think ?

Can you PM me url, section and maybe mail? Im interested in seeing what this is.

Also, if its illegal business stuff (dunno if it is) then dont host in UK.

Yes i also think UK are one of the strictest countries regarding warez. They are considering 3 strike rules and all shit.

Agreed! Any files that do not comply with any International Licenses agreements cannot be hosted in the UK. i.e. warez, copies of copyrighted material even in text form, etc etc. Did your host inform you of all the TOC's etc? If not, get the hell away from it and go off-shore! I can reccommend a host as can every other member here...look in the Hosting Offers/Discussions Section.

Hide the section until you can get your website on another host.

Warez Linking is Legal in the uk as unlike other countries, ‘facilitation’ is not illegal under UK copyright law and equally dmca does not apply to the uk as it is an american law. It would appear your host does not relise these two fundimental points.

Torrent Files are equally legal in the uk, as was recently provided, in the case of Alan Ellis.

Now it would be illegal to host a cyberlocker in the uk, but not provide links to a cyberlocker or torrent files, or run a tracker.

There is no DC`s which wont bend to Copyright complains and Court orders

what the host provider said

and told me even hong kong data center can't .
