Is this new? Because I can't find a corresponding listing in the Copyright Office's list of service provider agents (http://www.copyright.gov/onlinesp/list/a_agents.html).

The reason I'm wondering is that the Copyright Office does require you to provide an email address for your designated DMCA agent, and I'd like to know how they got around that.

(The requirement for registering an agent, by the way, is 17 U.S.C. 512(c)(2).)

Interesting--there is an email address listed. Wonder what happens if you email your notification there? Presumably, if you do, you are in compliance with the statute, regardless of the no-email policy, so they would have to do the takedown.
Is that a childs' handwriting?
It might have just been filled out on a tablet.

When I had to fill out all my job paperwork for my new job, I used pdfpen on my iPad for everything, and it looks like it was written by a toddler in crayon.

Why would you do that? I would bin any application that looked that way automatically.
It was an offer letter, not an application; and was sent to me on a Friday, and needed to be returned the same day (and I didn't have access to a printer).
It doesn't sound like he was filling out an application. It sounds like he had the job and was just filling out HR paperwork for benefits and taxes and such.
Potential law suit for disability discrimination?
Or a field which requires fine motor skills.
