How To Write a Warning Letter To a Copyright Violator?
Warning letter is a previous step
to report alleged copyright infringement authority. If someone willingly and
unwillingly republishes your article then we should first send a warning
letter, which should be written in polite language. Do not make any threats
about infringement which cannot be validate. Because we have only 2 options, if
copyright violator’s blog hosted on Google platform then we can easily remove
content by complaining to Google DMCA and Google AdSense. And If the Blog is
hosted to WordPress but using Google AdSense then we can complain about
copyright violation to Google AdSense, as a result they will disable to Google
AdSense account.
However this is hard step, but by
sending a warning letter we can remove content from copyright violator’s Blog.
For example purpose I have written a letter, just you have to change the bold
text only.
