Thanks for sharing the use case. However using it to defend the entire DMCA sounds like a false dichotomy. Surely there's a way to make rules only for those "awesome" uses, so that they don't have to be "clever" uses. C stands for Copyright and it's mainly used that way in practice.

Totally agree with everything you said, I just want to remind people that half of the story of DMCA is that we have really poor controls over our privacy and ironically DMCA is one of our only tools.

It does have many, many broken aspects.
