Quizplus · Accepted Answer

This is true. The DMCA (Digital Millennium Copyright Act) requires that ISPs (Internet Service Providers) take down websites that are hosting copyrighted material without permission as soon as they are notified of the infringement. This is done through a DMCA takedown notice which is sent by the copyright owner or their agent to the ISP, who then has a legal obligation to act on it. Failure to comply with DMCA takedown requests could result in legal action against the ISP.
