Overbroad DMCA Takedown Campaign Almost Wipes Dictionary Entries From Google

Remember that story about using fake DMCA that we covered a few days ago.

They have been sending a bunch of these takedown notice, for example, lists URLs from Adobe.com, Google.com, and Microsoft.com, that have absolutely nothing to do with the software review site.

The good news is that Google rejected these overbroad DMCA takedown requests (outstanding!), so no damage was done. However, it could have easily slipped by them, as it will slip by many other sites that automatically process takedown notices.
