Who is joking at Hollywood studios?
The largest Hollywood studios every day send to Google lists of addresses with pirated content, which must be immediately removed from the search result according to the DMCA law. Recently, there are especially many such requests from automated systems. Errors are becoming more common. In early November, Google received a whole bundle of "suicidal" requests , where a certain representative of the right holders urgently demands to remove content, including from their own sites.
For example, on behalf of the 20th Century Fox studio, we received a request to remove pirated copies of the series “How I Met Your Mother” with a list of 60 addresses. Among them is the CBS website, where they post old series. The same URL is listed as the source of the original work.
Another request contains a list of pirated URLs for the TV series “Family Guy” (20th Century Fox), including a link to an article in Wikipedia.

A Lionsgate spokesperson requests that 23 pages be deleted with pirated fragments of the film “Cabin in the Forest”. Among them are pages with a licensed film on Amazon, iTunes, Blockbuster and Xfinity.
The Sony Pictures studio received a request to remove from the search results of links to pirated copies of the film "Cops in the deep reserve." For unknown reasons, articles on Megaupload on the sites Cnet, Wired and Forbes were added to the list for deletion.
Trolling also touched the BBC Films studio , its request lists the "pirates" of the film "Forestgate", and among them are several reviews of the film in The Guardian, The Independent, The Mirror and Daily Mail. Worse, the list even lists the official movie page on Facebook.
This is probably some kind of prank. All requests were sent from 1 to 6 November on behalf of the strange organization “Yes It Is - No Piracy!” . However, they fully comply with the DMCA procedure, are sent via an online form on Google, and the official pages are well-disguised among dozens of pirated links - so the search engine could easily remove them from the output, following the letter of the law.
Maybe this is not even a joke, but really a failure of the search engine of a company that protects the interests of the owners. Such failures occur constantly. In the Google database, there were 51 requests to delete Wikipedia content , 6 requests to delete content from the same official CBS site. What can I say, recently came two requests to delete pages Habrahabr.ru , both on behalf of Microsoft. The first one has already been added to the Chilling Effect database .
All removal requests are duplicated on the Transparency Report website and are stored in the Chilling Effect archive, where the efforts of the rights holders have already compiled the largest index of pirated content on the Internet.
PS Chilling Effect site is now very slow because of the sharply increased attendance .
