Michael Horton the DMCA Is Broken. in Its Current Form, the DMCA Michael Horton The DMCA is broken. In its current form, the DMCA victimizes average internet users and content creators due to its vague rules and lack of provisions to penalize people and organizations that misuse DMCA takedowns. It is used to stifle criticism, creativity, problem solving aids, information, commentary, and general freedom of expression. Suppression of Expression DMCA claims have twice taken down a website I frequent in the past three years. On March 25th, 2013, Warner Brothers shutdown the Spacebattles forums with a DMCA claim on pictures in a thread about the then-upcoming film Pacific Rim. This DMCA claim, which was probably at publicly available promotional photos, was so vague that the administrators had to delete the entire thread to get rid of the DMCA issue (https://forums.spacebattles.com/threads/25th-march-2013-server-outage- dmca.253602/). Later that year, on December 24th, the site was hit by another DMCA claim. This one was specific and related to a photo of a toucan that used in a meme image (https://forums.spacebattles.com/threads/todays-outage-was-brought-to-you-by-the-letters-d-m-c- and-by-the-number-a.280447/). This was particularly egregious because A) the forum itself likely did not host the image (sites like Imgur and Photobucket fill that role) and B) meme images should be protected by Fair Use laws, since they are transformative content. Here are some examples of meme images: Meme images are a natural part of internet discourse in the modern era. They allow for quick and easy conveyance of ideas and emotions without the use of audio or video content, which is bandwidth intense and also subject to DMCA takedown abuse. They are also far easier for the average person to create than a wholly original piece of art, which has led to their proliferation and entrenchment in internet culture. There are a multitude of sites that allow people to create memes from templates or upload images they acquire on their own, lowering the barrier to entry. Suppression of Problem Solving Aids On December 22nd, 2014, a DMCA takedown was issued for a modding tool for the Dark Souls video game (http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=957469). Said tool was created to allow players of the PC version of the game change resolution and use commonly available PC settings that were not in the port. This program lacked any code from the game and was apparently targeted because it had Dark Souls in the name. The company responsible for this, FDS File Defense Service, did not do their due diligence when sending out takedown notices for Dark Souls debug mode patches, which could be used for multiplayer cheating. What this means is that if someone develops a program or uploads a file that solves a problem with a preexisting piece of software, it could be DMCA claimed under the auspices of fighting piracy, even if the program/file only affects the performance of the software in question. This is even more likely when the task of issuing DMCA claims is contracted out to external companies who use algorithms to find offending content, with no human oversight to ensure that the things being DMCA claimed are actually violating copyright. Suppression of Commentary/Critique/Information/Creativity This is an area where automated copyright claims and deliberate abuse of the DMCA coexists. Both actions are detrimental to the content creators, who likely cannot monetize their content and/or risk being barred from sites like YouTube, and the consumers of such content, who would benefit or be entertained by that content. At the low end, DMCA copyright strikes often seem to involve music, which results in large portions or entire videos being muted. For example, when GameTrailers.com, a site that reviews video games, demonstrates them via livestreaming, and provides other commentary and entertainment content, streamed Dragonball Xenoverse, the archive of that stream had its audio muted due to a copyright claim (http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=155438671&postcount=345). This meant that while the player could see the game, they could not hear the thoughts of the people playing it, which provide a great deal of information about the experience of playing a game, which cannot be discerned by just watching footage. GameTrailers later had a similar issue with a stream of RockBand 4, a game where playing music is the whole point of the game (http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=180637388&postcount=4113). The actual livestream had full audio, but anyone watching after the fact on Twitch.tv wound up seeing a video with half the audio muted (http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showpost.php?p=180938588&postcount=4173). This ruined the experience that people were looking to get out of the video: seeing the staff of GameTrailers compete against each other in a simulated battle of the bands. Internet critics are frequently targeted by automated copyright strikes. sfdebris, a critic and commentator on science fiction and fantasy material, had his entire YouTube channel taken down by CBS copyright claiming the footage he used; this was alluded to in two episodes of his show (http://sfdebris.com/videos/startrek/s028.php, http://sfdebris.com/videos/startrek/t127.php). While he regained use of his channel after removing the actual videos and only using it to advertise the presence of new ones on other sites, this meant that it would be harder for him to expand his viewership and less financially secure hosting for his videos. In fact, in late 2014, Blip.tv, where he had hosted his videos after YouTube would no longer host them, shut down, forcing him to take a hiatus until he could find a new site that would host the hundreds of videos. I myself have been the victim of automated copyright strikes. In 2010-2011, I contemplated making a series of videos critiquing Stargate Universe, a TV series I felt was deficient in several areas. As a prelude to this, I posted a series of videos on YouTube about the history of the Stargate franchise. Several days later, MGM hit the middle episode with a copyright strike and I pulled down the entire series of videos, which led me to abandon YouTube as a video service. Even though the clips I used were short and each video was at most fifteen minutes, MGM considered this either a threat to their copyright or commentary that needed to be suppressed. While I was protected by Fair Use, I had no illusions that I could go through YouTube’s laborious appeals system and come out on top, since I was not a user with enough cachet/resources to be worth listening to. This is made even worse by YouTube’s habit of refusing to honor DMCA counter-notices for content owned by companies like UMG (http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=536499). Bogus copyright strikes are also an issue users of all sizes and reputations have to deal with. For example, Siftd.net, a site that provides video game content curation and produces Pachter Factor, a series where financial analyst Michael Pachter provides financial insights into decisions made by video game companies, has run into this issue. While Siftd hosts most of its content on its own site, Pachter Factor is posted on YouTube on a one week delay. On January 27th, 2016, Pachter Factor episode 11 was uploaded on to YouTube and hit by a copyright strike (https://twitter.com/Dinfire/status/692442466805518336). The copyright strike came from Conde Nast, which did not own any video clips in the episode; in fact, they attempted to claim a trailer for the Oculus Rift was theirs (https://twitter.com/Dinfire/status/692440567914053635). Third parties copyright striking content they do not own or are not contracted to deal with is a frequent occurrence on YouTube. Deliberate copyright strikes have occurred against critics and commentators who point out negative aspects of products or then-current events. For example, games critic John Bain (also known as Total Biscuit) received a copyright strike for a negative impressions video for the game Day One Garry’s Incident on October 18th, 2013. This was only removed after Bain published a video about the situation on October 20th (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QfgoDDh4kE0). Bain later made a video criticizing the game Guise of the Wolf, which received a copyright strike. Afterwards, the company that made the game, Fun Creator, threatened to take down his channel before capitulating to growing negative sentiment against them and removing the copyright strike (http://www.escapistmagazine.com/news/view/132262-Guise-of-the-Wolf-Dev-Takes-Down-Negative- YouTube-Review-Update-2). Games critic Jim Sterling has also been hit with DMCA claims for first impression videos of bad games. In November 2014, he received a copyright strike on his video for the Slaughtering Grounds, a poorly made Steam Greenlight game. The developer also threatened legal action against Sterling and his channel, before the copyright claim was removed (http://www.lazygamer.net/24/game-developer-issues-take- down-notice-against-jim-sterling/). In March 2015, Sterling received another copyright strike for a negative impressions video for Skate Man Intense Rescue, made by Digipex Games. The Vietnamese company admitted it was trying to exploit the DMCA in order to punish Sterling for monetizing his first impressions videos of Steam Greenlight games (http://kotaku.com/indie-developer-retaliates-to- negative-video-with-youtu-1692469143, https://youtu.be/0dHGVF2syAQ). On April 27th, 2015, games commentator Super Bunnyhop posted a video looking into claims of internal strife in video game publisher Konami (http://www.neogaf.com/forum/showthread.php?t=1036765).

  • Boisvert-Storey-Sony Case Brief
    Storey C204 Summer 2014 Case Study BE MOVED SITUATION Sony Corporation is a 68-year old multinational based in Tokyo. In 2012, the tech giant employed 173,000 people, with corporate headquarters in Japan, Europe, and America. In May 2014, the company was down to 146,300, cutting 26,700 as part of CEO Kaz Hirai’s “One Sony” plan. Recently, the firm eVen sold former office buildings in Tokyo for $156 million (Inagaki). This followed a similar $1.2 billion sale in 2013. After seVeral years of losses, Sony’s situation appears critical. In the last fiscal year, the company lost $1.25 billion. EVen the gaming diVision, where the Playstation console family (PS2, PS3, PS4) is projected to sell 17 million units this year, lost $78 million (Quarterly Results). There are many causes: Sony’s jettisoning of its PC brand Vaio, the poor performance and planned spinoff of Sony’s teleVision diVision, PS4 launch and marketing costs, the struggling PSVita, R&D costs for Sony’s Project Morpheus, and the fluctuation of exchange rate markets. For the current year, Sony is projecting a $489 million loss. How sustainable is Sony’s current business model? Will the success of the PS4 lead to renewed profitability for the games diVision and the company as a whole? Perhaps opportunities in new markets can spark a turn-around. The company’s core businesses are electronic entertainment (Sony Computer Entertainment, Sony Music Entertainment, and Sony Pictures Entertainment) and hardware (Sony Mobile Communications and Sony Electronics). Though it also dabbles in financial serVices, publishing, and medical imaging, electronics represents roughly two-thirds of the corporation’s reVenue (Sony Annual Report 2011, 2013).

  • Assassin's Creed III and the Aesthetics of Disappointment
    Assassin’s Creed III and the Aesthetics of Disappointment Jonathan Church Arcadia University Dept. of Sociology, Anthropology and Criminal Justice Glenside, PA 19038, USA 0012155724017 [email protected] Michael Klein Arcadia University Dept. of Sociology, Anthropology and Criminal Justice Glenside, PA 19038, USA [email protected] ABSTRACT Using a case example of the cycle of prerelease, release, and post-release commentary, criticism and reviews of Assassin’s Creed III from June 2012-January 2013, this paper examines how video game players produce a “culture of history” about the game they play through their commitment to commentary and critique mainly found in user reviews in gaming enthusiast press websites. This paper examines how an aesthetic of disappointment generates a comparative sense of gamers’ cultural present by framing aspects that should have been improved upon from the series’ past as well as in terms of expectations for the future of gaming. This paper concludes by suggesting that part of the pleasure of contemporary gaming for many self-identified “core” gamers is being able to both play games and aesthetically discuss the game being played as part of a culture of history with other gamers, a form of paidiaic play for “gaming capital”. Keywords Criticism, video games, affinity spaces, neoliberalism, paidiaic play INTRODUCTION This paper examines how video gaming enthusiast blog sites that cultivate community participation, reviews and forums, are generating affinity spaces (Gee 2005) where video game players enact their identities and construct what Suominen (2011) has called a “culture of history.” We argue that the aggregation of these sites may be thought of as a kind of neoliberal archive.

  • Can We Save Video Game Journalism? Can Grass Roots Media Contribute with a More Critical Perspective to Contemporary Video Game Coverage?
    Fall 08 Can We Save Video Game Journalism? Can grass roots media contribute with a more critical perspective to contemporary video game coverage? Author: Alejandro Soler Supervisor: Patrick Prax MASTERS THESIS: TWO YEARS MASTERS THESIS | DEPARTMENT OF INFORMATICS AND MEDIA | MEDIA & COMMUNICATION STUDIES UPPSALA UNIVERSITY | SPRING 2014 Abstract Video game journalism has been accused for lack in journalistic legitimacy for decades. The historical relation between video game journalists and video game publishers has always been problematic from an objective point of view, as publishers have the power to govern and dictate journalistic coverage by withdrawing financial funding and review material. This has consequently lead to lack in journalistic legitimacy when it comes to video game coverage. However, as the grass roots media movement gained popularity and attention in the mid 2000s, a new more direct and personal way of coverage became evident. Nowadays, grass roots media producers operate within the same field of practice as traditional journalists and the difference between entertainment and journalism has become harder than ever to distinguish. The aim of this master thesis is to discover if grass roots media is more critical than traditional video game journalism regarding industry coverage. The study combines Communication Power theory, Web 2.0 and Convergence Culture, as well as Alternative Media and Participatory Journalistic theory, to create an interdisciplinary theoretical framework. The theoretical framework also guides our choice in methodology as a grounded theory study, where the aim of analysis is to present or discover a new theory or present propositions grounded in our analysis. To reach this methodological goal, 10 different grass roots media producers were interviewed at 6 different occasions.

  • THE PEOPLE's HISTORY of STEAM a Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences of Georgetown Univ
    THE PEOPLE’S HISTORY OF STEAM A Thesis submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of Arts and Sciences of Georgetown University in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Arts in Communication, Culture and Technology. By David Zhu Shen, B.A. Washington, DC April 24, 2015 Copyright 2015 by David Zhu Shen All Rights Reserved ii THE PEOPLE’S HISTORY OF STEAM David Zhu Shen, B.A. Thesis Advisor: Garrison LeMasters, PhD. ABSTRACT Valve Software’s proprietary software distribution client Steam is billed as “The Ultimate Entertainment Platform” on Valve’s website. Steam is responsible for selling, distributing and managing video game software to millions of users around the globe through their internet connections. However, in addition to functioning as a direct retail system, Steam also functions as a social network, system of control and surveillance, as well as a site for work and trade. This thesis argues that due to the inclusion of these functions as a part of Steam’s code, those features must now also be considered as a part of the field of activity referred to as ‘play’. Utilizing a combination of archival research, discourse analysis, and digital ethnography, this thesis historicizes Steam’s impact on the field of play, as expressed by users who were forced to adapt to its presence in their lives. iii To all of my friends, family, peers, and professors who have helped me in the writing of this thesis, thank you. This would not have been possible without your constant support and love. Many thanks, DAVID ZHU SHEN iv TABLE OF CONTENTS Introduction……………………………………………………………………………..
