Did you engage any lawyer/solicitor? Companies don't care about individuals, but they do fear lawyers.
replyMy experience with lawyers helping me respond to other lawyers is "Stop interacting with that person".
replyUnless I'm spending way more money, I'd expect any company to fire me as a client as fast as legally possible if I threatened them with a lawyer.
The US, or any nation state?
replyAnna's Archive has clearly discovered, by trial and error, which hosts work and which don't.
reply"DMCA ignored hosting" isn't even illegal. Ignoring a liability shield doesn't make you actually liable

replySo if you're fraudulently accused of wrongdoing that makes you a criminal?
replyNice, nice....
My interpretation was "if they'll serve criminals, they won't care if someone accuses you of a crime".
replyBut that doesn't apply to cloudflare hosting so it still comes across as a pointless snipe.
In this case, yes. Ignoring invalid dmca requests is not a legal way to deal with them.
replyIt's completely legal to ignore a DMCA notice. These notices set up a procedure where you're definitely not liable, but it doesn't mean it's the only way to not be liable. You can also not be liable if you - for example - didn't do anything illegal.
replyReceiving illegitimate DMCA notices is not the same as hosting criminal services.
