> if it falls under fair use

i'm under the impression that "fair use" is a defense and/or judge's assessment, rather than something "civilians" can factually declare.

hence when a DMCA takedown is received, i don't see how DO is in a position to assess that something is or is not a violation. they simply follow the process outlined in the legislation.
