What the complaint must contain
Hosting providers process notices that are grounded in statute and specific about the content. A complaint to Akamai Connected Cloud (Linode) should identify the protected work or right, list the exact infringing URLs, state your authority to act for the rights holder, include the good-faith and accuracy statements of DMCA §512(c)(3) (or the equivalent ground — trademark, personality rights, fraud), and be signed. One-line “please delete this site” emails are discarded.
