Wonder what Google would do if people started filing DMCA complaints against these scraper sites for taking your content/snippets without your permission?

Google will probably do nothing. They are themselves a scraper site taking snippets and caching your complete site without first asking you. Scraper directories are not better or worse than Google. The only difference is that scraper directories have static result lists based on predetermined keywords and the Google SERPs are dynamic based on user input.
