There are many cases of DMCA abuse, and it'd be nice if someone had the resources to go after these, get them fined and help set a precedent to prevent further abuse. Unfortunately, that probably cost more than it's worth.

There should be a mediating body that looks at each request and determines the veracity of the request.

I mean, the EFF has offered to assist in this case, but it will probably be solved with a simple cease and desist letter.
