The tool we currently use for DMCA takedowns has evolved a bit internally to take down things like personal information. We need to adapt that tool to be much more clear on what is a DMCA takedown and what is not, as well as develop better internal policies on when that should be used, since it does affect user generated content.

Can confirm. I've asked the admins to completely remove certain types of posts in /r/jokes, such as people posting phone numbers asking others to call and harass them.

Sometimes they look like the above linked comment, and sometimes they look like the DMCA takedown. I guess depending on which admin is doing the removing.

Thanks for the answer. I hope you can at least change the wording on removed comments to differentiate between DMCA and non-DMCA removals.

What do you currently do for DMCA? Can you describe the process? (if you're allowed)
