Correct.
I have found that GoDaddy is notorious for blowing you off if you do not have your lawyer (letterhead) send a DMCA. However, I am not going to have my lawyer sending out DMCA on 1st contact. That would get expensive.
So I have found (especially with GD and PP) that CC'g the attorney general of the state(s), and other law enforcement for effected states will get it typically cleaned up, and addressed in 24-48 business hours. The offenders accounts will be frozen, and your shit will be removed. In my experience, they also have actively policed my content to keep it off their site or have included my company, with others, on who not to post on their forum.
I do not have time for silly reindeer games. My time is money. So I will go as high as I can if my 1st DMCA is ignored and I will start CC'g everyone. This has shown to get results and solve the problem nicely.
