fair use rights and the DMCA.

There is a chance that an INFRINGEMENT has occurred...and was
wondering if EFF.org might recommend a course of action, one based upon
knowledge of INTERNET revenues. Please advise.
By the way, I found your page on Intellectual Property rather remarkable
in this day and age.
Best Regards
