legal theory here is that the takedown notice is not proper because the MPA doesn't have standing to file the takedown
That is a question for the courts to answer. The MPA is arguing that the code is for a tool primarily for infringing copyright. If the courts agree and also rule that the DMCA also grants standing for take-downs of tools that are, in themselves, not otherwise infringing on copyright, then the case could go forward.
