Because it’s about time we saw it enforced here, setting a precedent to be used in the many other cases of DMCA misrepresentation that exist.
You know its kind of surprising it took this long for someone to challenge it, but then again in this case the defendant isnt a major entertainment or recording company.
Well, the fiscal position of the streaming industry was not favorable compared to the copyright lobby's a decade ago. Things are probably a bit more balanced now.
