VIDEO: Notification and withdrawal. The removal of important content
In recent years, ARTICLE 19 Mexico and Central America (Article 19) has listened to more and more journalists, activists, and other members of civil society whose important work was removed from the Internet through a mechanism known as “notification and withdrawal.” . The recalls were allegedly due to copyright infringement, but in many cases the content was the original work of the journalist who received the notice. The communications referred to an American copyright law known as the Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA). This law allowed alleged copyright owners to send a simple notice to the service provider when their content has been published without their permission, and to have the post removed immediately. The situation was puzzling, but the results were clear: important content was being removed from the Internet.
