Dear Ms. Soubras,
We are in receipt of your DMCA notice. Because the name of a Persona does not necessarily mean that the design is infringing and because new Personas are added and old ones removed on a regular basis, we must require rights holders to identify the specific Personas that are allegedly infringing rather than simply search results. We hope you understand the need for this requirement and we are ready to take down the Personas you identify as soon as we receive the needed information.
Sincerely yours,
Liz Compton
