Now, none of those things are an issue here... the issue is the brandability; their names are often generic (for privacy reasons) and they do not wish to have a unique brand due to stalkers, so we find ourselves in situations where you have these companies sending fraudulent notices based on nothing more than a generic keyword...

Is it the cam girl's fault? No, I don't think so... the companies should search for the infringing content manually, and remove the said content.

The cam girl isn't affected, it's website owners like Freeones.com (one of the few honest people in the business) that get the raw end of the deal for no apparent reason.

Same with people like @mechanicvirus and @jscott, they run legit sites and get shit for no reason. They are affiliates, and they use legal promo content, they get these notices due to generic names.
Thank you, this is the perfect response and I want to reiterate that many good affiliates are being caught up in mass DMCA sweeps that are not only killing their ranks, but also removing hard work and trust that porn brands build up to be promoted.
