I blame more the "dmca agents" who know what they are doing. By the way, next time you receive a notice from one of these "agents", before filing a counter notice I recommend sending them an email with a link to the terms and ask them kindly to retract their notice. This way they are in breach if they file a new notice against you because they can't file "in good faith" anymore. There's also a chance they do actually retract their erroneous notice.
