Haha wow. What hurts my soul the most is that there is no penalty, legal, financial or reputational, for this kind of bogus behaviour, like how Sony's YT bots keep claiming ownership of any performance or recording of a piece of classical music because they hold copyright over one particular recording of that piece. The fact that there isn't any downside just shows what poor legislation the DMCA is. If you told me that the DMCA was written entirely by the music copyright industry and handed to compliant congress members to rubber stamp, I'm likely to believe you.
