Apparently some of the big copyright holders are pushing the government to force Google to completely de-index sites that have been proven to violate DMCA.
Does anyone know more about this? Google is pushing back, but for repeat offenders it sorta makes sense to me.

That would be the best news lately if it happens 
Re: Whole Site Take Downs On Valid DMCA Claims?
Would it?
I guess it depends on the process they use. And I do not have any faith in the almighty Google’s judgement. Besides have any of the major tube sites / offenders actually been found guilty of violating DMCA?
Potentially it would only take one claim against a site and your entire business is dead.

I don’t think they are pushing a ‘1 notification and then Kaboom’ policy… just for chronic repeat offenders the option of having the whole site removed should provide a better stick to get rid of those who abuse the safe harbor provisions of the DMCA as a ‘get out of jail free’ card

Death to the pirates.

What G doesn’t mention is they’re getting a piece of the pie, they knocked everyone else off the block to put the tubes in first place for a reason.
