Logo Not Copyright Management Information Under DMCA:


Removal of a trademark logo and link is not 'removal of copyright management information' as barred by the DMCA. The District Court for New Jersey dimissed a copyright claim, interpretating 'copyright management information' as being part of an automated system, not part of a manual system (such as affixation of a copyright notice).
