I regularly receive DMCA outside of America, which I wished I could reply to "your law doesn't apply to me, cite the right one in my jurisdiction or get lost".

But I can't.

Because my hosting will process those by default and shut my sites down unless I just comply to the take down, no matter how legitimate it is.

It can be even a bogus take down from a US point of view, or even a take down for a non existing content.

Doesn't matter. I have to show that I comply, or 48h later, my server is shut down.

That's seriously messed up.
