Rotolight has caused quite a stir online today after they sent a ‪#‎DMCA‬ (Digital Millennium Copyright Act) takedown notice to Vimeo - not for copyright infringement, but because the video was a review that reflected negatively on one of their products:

I'd say they lost a little reputation with their actions, but if it's actually a great product it won't matter.
