I only have shallow knowledge of the US law, but in German law, if you give the analogue of an affidavit (eidesstattliche Versicherung) instead of just a signed statement, you will face harsh legal consequences if the statement in it turns out to be false.

It's a perjury offense in the US under the existing DCMA. You basically suggested the current practice.

  But then I am surprised that considering the many false DCMA claims, there are so few perjury lawsuits against the responsible persons.
