As of now the site is already back.
The core of the problem is that there's absolutely nothing effectively preventing companies from abusing IP claims to harass whoever they want.
At least you'd expect claims to be automatically dropped when coming from an assumptive/disingenuous party. Something like "you issued 100 wrong claims so we won't listen to your 101st one, sod off". But nah.
As such, "your violating muh inrelactual properry, remove you're conrent now!!!!" has zero cost, and a thousand benefits. Of course they'd abuse it.
The role of AI in this situation is simply to provide those companies a tool to issue more and faster claims, at the expense of an already low accuracy.
IP and copyright laws have been the bane of the internet. Not only stifling fair use but it has become nothing but weaponised for corporate warfare. the DMCA isn't fit for purpose.
Couldn't it be weaponized right back at them. What's stopping an individual?
Getting sued for all your bananas by companies much richer than you.
Fairnuff.
