Every cent in the War Chest is tracked and published in the Wall of Shame Ledger. You'll see where it came from, where it went, and what it accomplished.

How to Support the War Chest

Choose your contribution amount — one-time or recurring — and know that 100% of it fuels legal and advocacy work. This is not tax-deductible; it's a direct action fund to push back against DMCA abuse.

Why the War Chest Exists

The War Chest was created to counter the wave of automated, baseless DMCA takedowns that threaten creators, affiliates, and independent site owners. Too often, these claims are generated by bots, rubber-stamped without review, and weaponized to silence competition. We’re building the first public, fully transparent defense fund to stop them. This isn’t a hobby project. It’s a coordinated, ongoing defense strategy with legal teeth. When you donate, you’re not just supporting a cause — you’re buying the tools, time, and firepower to push back against a system designed to scare you into silence.

Transparency & Accountability

We keep a public ledger of every action taken, every claim challenged, and every dollar spent. You can view it anytime on our Defense Ledger page.
