probably

I'm not an expert, but there are a lot of things, that line up. The takedown came from BN Germany. File Defense Service is a german company, which already showed an active work relationship with BN . They search for illegal content links on the internet. They claim that they use a unique piece of software, while they say somewhere else that only manual searches can find all the hidden illegal links, i.e. google all the day. Furthermore, the CEO of FDS has some ties to the media/games industry (e.g., worked for Warner and Eidos).Hence, theysearched for BN Dark Souls files on the internet. Like Inskipp mentioned above. DSFix was a hit, and became part of their results list, which was subsequently used for individual or mass take downs.And I don't think that they downloaded the fix and installed the game to test if this is actual illegal content or not.This is just a guess, but still better than instantly blaming BN. Durante had just bad luck, because the internet detectives had no idea what they where looking at.
