21.6    The information in this Section 21 sets forth our procedures for filing DMCA infringement notifications and counter-notifications, and is not legal advice; it should not be relied upon as such and may not reflect the latest changes in the law or applicable regulations. Notices and counter-notices must meet the then-current statutory requirements imposed by the DMCA; see http://www.loc.gov/copyright/ for details. Before you file a DMCA notification or counter-notification, you should first consult with your attorney or solicitor. It is even more important to consult an attorney or solicitor before filing a counter-notification if you are a non-U.S. resident, particularly as you will be consenting to the jurisdiction of the United States courts.
