Description

<p>This study analyzes Digital Millennium Copyright Act (DMCA) takedown notices in Japan using Google Transparency Reports and Lumen data for the first half of 2015. It is found that the use of DMCA takedown notices in Japan is active primarily owing to adult content and doujin copyright holders. However, the process of notice and take down has been found to be abused as there are many URLs against which no action has been taken yet. Based on these facts, this paper proposes that society uses these notices carefully and facilitates appropriate issuance of such notices.</p>
