I think you missed the part where the takedown happens without the need to prove anything. And it's easy enough to gin up something. Also most activist groups generate a fair amount of media content. Content which is likely to be monitored by the people most likely to be in their sights. And if someone mildly technically knowledgable gets involved you could really cause trouble. Imagine the havoc that could be wreaked by AT&T disconnecting Verizon. Or shutting down Dreamhost. Instant disconnection on accusal is a recipe for stupid things. Hell, someone would probably set up a linkbait news posting to a webpage that they claim is protected ip and have a script issue automatic disconnect requests to everyone who views the target page.
