I’ve been using the DMCA system for quite a while now and I have issues with people completely stealing my models. I recently copyrighted my work with the US Copyright Office and it was accepted and I got my registration certificate. I contacted Roblox about the infringing work and they kept saying that I NEEDED original content that was a a Roblox Link. AKA, I would need to upload my original work to the Roblox website to be able to go through with the DMCA process. That wouldn’t even work though. If I just now uploaded it the date it was uploaded would be after the upload of the infringing work. Roblox wouldn’t believe me then since my content was uploaded after the infringing content.
According to DMCA law, you don’t have to have your original content published to the website that the infringing content was found on. It’s kind of just common sense and I feel like Roblox needs to improve the DMCA process all together.
Expected behavior
Roblox needs to comply with DMCA guidelines.
