Until there is a financial penalty for fraudulent or "mistaken" DMCA claims there is no reason for companies to make even the most basic effort at due diligence.

The DMCA should be repealed, but won't be, so instead should be updated to make erroneous claims have a financial penalty. Nothing major at first, but ratcheting upwards for every false claim. Oh, and all legal expenses for the victim party of course.
