DMCA is a tool for suppression of free information. It doesn't require evidence that you've made a good faith effort to consider fair use or other legal complexity as it's meant to take down the information before that is settled in court, but most commonly used to suppress information from a person or group who can't afford to fight it in court. Microsoft's Github has a history of delete first without risking their own necks to stand up for obviously fraudulent takedowns much less ones with unsettled law like APIs/SDKs.
