1. Don't you have to be 100% sure to get your facts straight before starting a thread that can potentially damage reputation and "shut down someone sources of income" as the result? Or maybe you think that proper due diligence is for "copyright dinosaurs" only? Now talk about sense of entitlement lol.
2. They aren't shutting down sites, they're asking to take down links. No real damage was done, no reputations ruined, no income lost, no businesses closed, no jobs lost, just a trivial mistake that was already corrected and all parties involved sincerely apologized - if your buddies at filesharing sites would have also acted like that all the time we wouldn't have any problem with piracy and false positives in DMCAs.
3. Yes false positives do happen from time to time when sending DMCAs, and the ONLY reason for it is the absurd amount of infringment that is going on out there. If those sites were of but small help to copyright holders and at least banned repeat offenders, the amount of infringing links would decrease 1000 fold and of course it would be much easier to check them all before sending take down notices.
