Thomas Hawk sez, “I was disappointed to have hundreds of my photos pulled down last week off of Flickr due to a fraudulently filed DMCA takedown notice by the World Erotic Art Museum in Miami. The museum submitted a sworn statement claiming copyright over 100% of the items in their collection, including items out of copyright, clearly transformative abstracts, and even works by unknown artists. While a museum might object to our posting images of their collection, abusing the DMCA is not the answer.”
(Thanks, Thomas!)
