Questions presented
-
Whether receipt of a takedown notice alone is sufficient to impute actual knowledge of copyright infringement to its recipient under the contributory infringement framework set forth in Metro-GoldwynMayer Studios Inc. v. Grokster, Ltd., 545 U.S. 913 (2005).
-
Whether a recipient of a takedown notice who publishes the notice with limited editorial comment thereon materially contributes to any prior or ongoing direct copyright infringement.
-
Whether the posting of a link to copyrighted material saved at a third-party storage provider is the same as posting the infringing material itself.
