You can make a DMCA request for whatever you want. Even if it's BS the onus of proof falls on the instance not the DMCA sender. Large social media platforms like YouTube and Reddit have agreements with large copyright holders to deal with their complaints out of court but there is no way any Lemmy instance has that.

They're hosted in Finland. Is Finland required to follow US laws or respond to legal requests made under US laws? Pretty sure the answer is a resounding fucking NO.
