why do you think this is MSFT's fault?
Didn't github pre-acquisition always comply with DMCA takedown requests too?
Also, why shouldn't they? This really doesn't seem like the hill they should choose to die on, if they decide to go against the government they would have far more interesting things to fight for.
And this is one of the less defensible ones too, given they explicitly gave examples of infringing copyrights in the code.

EDIT: ah, but this isn't a proper takedown notice, as per https://twitter.com/xor/status/1319755776043384838
