If you believe, in good faith, that someone has wrongly filed a notice of copyright infringement against you, the DMCA permits you to send AI a counter-notice.

Notices and counter-notices should be sent to: Designated Agent (Phone: 888-863-8730), 855 El Camino Real, Ste 13A N399, Palo Alto CA 94304; or by email to info@anthinst.com.
