That's not the point. SOmetimes the terms of service of the registrar itself allows takedowns, not the DMCA. According to the lawyer they've done that before.

Something I've not done before, and I'm not quite clear on. If I submit a DMCA to Google, will they remove the site from the serps? The scraper is running adsense. I've done a DMCA to Google for content on blogs, but never for someone who's not affiliated with Google. If they're out of the serps, that takes care of the problem too.
