Hi everyone,
I currently operate a private server for an old video game that now isn't running anymore. I was wondering if anyone had any information regarding how DMCAs work and whether there are any solutions to preventing cease and desist/takedown requests.
From the research I have done, it seems like the basics are to move your host over to off-shore hosting in a non-DMCA compliant country like Russia, alongside web and domains. The one problem I am trying to tackle is PayPal, as I do take donations for the server.
I would like the advice of people on RZ since many of you guys have had experience with this:
What do you do when you get a DMCA? What do you do when players threaten to contact the original devs because they were banned?
Thank you for whomever can respond.
