Google Acknowledges Removal of Page - DMCA

I have never seen this before "In response to a complaint we received under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, we have removed 1 result(s) from this page. If you wish, you may read the DMCA complaint for these removed results." Well, I never really did a search on sex and go to the last page of the results. In fact, the only reason I did this was because I found a referral from Google on one of my sites for that keyword (I did not find my site in the results by the way :/).

The text reads like this with the links pointing as Google has them pointed as I see it now. "In response to a complaint we received under the Digital Millennium Copyright Act, we have removed 1 result(s) from this page. If you wish, you may read the DMCA complaint for these removed results."

The first paragraph of the complaint reads:

As you may recall, our office represents [private] (and others) and his website, removed. In response to our firm's May 28, 2004, and June 7, 2004, letters Google seems to have temporarily removed some infringing websites from Google's "Sponsored Links." However, Google's remedial action was short lived. Remarkably, less than one month later, many previously identified infringing sites remain listed in Google's regular search term returns section. In addition to these previously identified infringing sites, several more unlawful infringers (see below) have appeared as "Sponsored Links" on Google. Please take the necessary steps to immediately remove the previously identified infringing sites (which should have already been done), and the newly identified sites (see below) from your search engine and confirm the removal with me as soon as possible.
