Evidently you haven't been following along with the farce that is the DMCA notification process then. These companies do, in fact, randomly, and in most instances, incorrectly hand out takedown notifications like Halloween candy. This instance is but a single case in point.

Random and incorrect takedown notices happen quite frequently.

BTW, you should refrain from discussing Contract Law since you have absolutely no clue as to what you are talking about.
