Are you the copyright holder or authorized to act on the copyright owner's behalf?
Yes, I am the copyright holder.
Please describe the nature of your copyright ownership or authorization to act on the owner's behalf.
I am [private] of the website GeorgeCarlin.net, and am [private] of some copyrighted material on that website. More specifically, I am [private] of the material found at the following URL: https://georgecarlin.net/oldsite/bogus.html
Somebody on Github is hosting an exact copy of this content at http://phrancis.github.io/george-carlin/bogus-quotes.html, such that it comes up at the top of web search results, instead of mine.
Please provide a detailed description of the original copyrighted work that has allegedly been infringed. If possible, include a URL to where it is posted online.
The copyrighted work is a researched self-published essay [private] about examining alleged quotations from American comedian George Carlin.
It can be found on my website at https://georgecarlin.net/oldsite/bogus.html .
What files should be taken down? Please provide URLs for each file, or if the entire repository, the repository’s URL.
The file that should be taken down is at http://phrancis.github.io/george-carlin/bogus-quotes.html
Have you searched for any forks of the allegedly infringing files or repositories? Each fork is a distinct repository and must be identified separately if you believe it is infringing and wish to have it taken down.
No. This seems to be the only page that was made public, as it's the only one I can find.
Is the work licensed under an open source license? If so, which open source license? Are the allegedly infringing files being used under the open source license, or are they in violation of the license?
No
What would be the best solution for the alleged infringement? Are there specific changes the other person can make other than removal? Can the repository be made private?
The work should be removed, or made private
Do you have the alleged infringer’s contact information? If so, please provide it.
No, only the name that's in the URL, "phrancis.github.io".
I have a good faith belief that use of the copyrighted materials described above on the infringing web pages is not authorized by the copyright owner, or its agent, or the law.
I have taken fair use into consideration.
I swear, under penalty of perjury, that the information in this notification is accurate and that I am the copyright owner, or am authorized to act on behalf of the owner, of an exclusive right that is allegedly infringed.
I have read and understand GitHub's Guide to Submitting a DMCA Takedown Notice.
So that we can get back to you, please provide either your telephone number or physical address.
