This is rather odd.

This is rather odd. I seldom use torrents, though I had to when I downloaded Commodore OS a few years back (see http://osarchive.sda1.eu/commodore-os). The issue seems to be that a genuine torrent got taken down by mistake by an automated system. This is reminiscent of when Warner Bros took down their own site:  http://www.bbc.com/news/technology-37275603.

But is there any come back to incorrect take-downs? Can you sue the company responsible for "loss of earnings"?
