It means that hosting public data in a US-based cloud means opening up yourself to a single point of failure!

I'm not entirely sure whether you can submit a DMCA takedown request if you're not a citizen of the USA. For once, you need to provide US-based contact info.

However, I am not sure if the service provider needs to check whether this contact info is correct before takedown.

So it seems that any public-facing data on any US-based server can be made to disappear for at least 10-14 days. But just because a country has crappy laws doesn't mean you should use those laws against them! ;)

So you can't just have an agent do the request on your behalf?
