Is there anything else you want to say without taking even the slightest degree of research?

using a us registra for the domain does not bind you to US laws.
in fact if you look up the mininova case with bein you will see that they got their ass handed to them because they complied with DMCA takedown request even though their business was located in a completely different country
when they tried to take advantage of the safe harbor provision they were told that it was not applicable to their countries laws, and they were missing key issues to their countries DMCA process.
you might want to take your own advice about doing research before shooting your mouth off.
the extra hoops that MUTT has been forced to jump thru are most likely the extra requirements defined by that countries equivalent, if they were just made up as you seem to be saying, he could own their ass in court without every complying to those requests.
knowing a little about canada/EU equivelents, such request for "proof" are not out of line, and until those conditions are met, the takedown request is not valid in those jurisdictions.
