Dumb! Maybe it's different in the U.S., but in the U.K. at least, you DON'T have to register copyright anywhere. The creator of the work AUTOMATICALLY has copyright. So, if you think you can rip-off someone's work, and then defend a copyright claim by saying: "Well, it wasn't registered anywhere, so I can do what I like", think again.

Nicely & accurately done DMCA counter notification letter template - the "Do-It-Yourself Counter Notification Letter" is for webmasters to use when they receive a DMCA complaint notice from their ISP . . . I say when, not if, b/c this law has done far more damage to free speech then I predicted in my 2002 article & will continue to do b/c corporations & lawyers overuse & freely abuse it ... it's convoluted procedurally but pretty dang clear on what's actually protected . . . to all my fellow webmasters, frankly I know it's often easier to just take something down then figure out how to fight back but please don't, b/c your ISP isn't going to & we can't leave it all to Google & Digg . . . hoping some of you will join us in protecting & freedom of speech & promoting information ... so here's the tool, hoping you'll pick it up...

From the page: "One of the favorite tools of both cults and corporations seeking to take embarassing information off the Internet is to falsely claim violation of a copyright or trademark. The Digital Millennium Copyright Act, enacted in 1998, set out a notification procedure that can be used to request an ISP to remove allegedly infringing material from a web page. However, there is a defense against this attack: it's called a counter notification letter."
