Does anyone have experience with these trademark/DMCA takedown requests? I'm curious, do receivers of these requests really do any sort of due diligence on the requests? Or, do they just rubber-stamp them, and pass them onto the targets of the requests? For example, if I hit YouTube/Google with a trademark/DMCA takedown request, claiming to own the name, "Mr. Beast", and I provide some phoney registration number, they're not gonna act it on...are they?
