Answer to Question 1

The DMCA includes a safe harbor provision that allows websites and Internet service providers to avoid liability for copyright infringement if they follow certain procedural safeguards. The DMCA safe harbor provision in 17 U.S.C.  512(c), (m) and (n) is designed to relieve websites from the burden of checking user-generated material before the content is posted. The DMCA includes a takedown notice procedure.
