Just send a counter-DMCA, if your content is actually legal. If your content is not legal, you deserve the inconvenience.

Do most webmasters not know how to counter-DMCA?
I agree with you. I would add however that it is preferable that the cam sponsor files the counter: they are the actual copyright owner of the promotional material provided to webmasters. Webmasters are merely authorized by them to use those tools by means of non-exclusive licensing.

Actually it is now an important criteria when choosing a cam sponsor: will they help and file counter notices. I know 2 of them who will do exactly that and I intend to spend much more time working with real partners in the future.
