Google now reporting false DMCA takedown requests

http://j.mp/12bDcP1  (TorrentFreak)

   "Google has quietly rolled out a new feature to its copyright
    transparency report, allowing the public to see when DMCA takedown
    notices sent by copyright holders are false. The search giant is
    currently processing more than a dozen million "infringing" links per
    month, but points out that not all requests sent by rightsholders are
    legitimate. As an example, Google cites a request where a major U.S.
    motion picture studio asked them to censor their IMDb page and
    official trailer."
