It's better than liability for service providers.

If you're a service provider, you don't have to listen to a DMCA request; just the safe harbor the DMCA gives you evaporates and you're on your own (like service providers were before the DMCA).

I agree it would be good for the DMCA to be strengthened against abuse like this, but it's better for everyone than if we didn't have it.
