DMCA Takedown Notice For a Fake ID

Posted by kdawson on from the points-for-chutzpah dept.

TrippTDF writes "Rachel Hyman, an artist and bartender in New York City, maintains a blog where she regularly posts images of fake IDs she confiscates from would-be underage drinkers, along with a description of the confiscation. Recently, one of her posts (Google cache) was taken down when the owner of the fake ID invoked the DMCA against Blogspot. Can one claim a forged document as a copyrighted work of art?"

    ...but if you make a game of screwing with people you do get kicked in the teeth sometimes. It's not clear to me if she dug up and posted all the personal information on that person before or after she got the takedown, but if it was before I can't have much sympathy for her. (I realize many of you have some irrational, indiscriminate reverence for "artists".)
