Are there examples of DMCA being used in a positive manner?

You mean besides literally all the times when people upload raw copyrighted movies and music to YouTube? DMCA is boring and un-newsworthy when it's working properly. (Unless you're the type who thinks copyright is inherently wrong, but it would then be very silly to ask if DMCA was ever "used in a manner".)

Someone once took one of my youtube videos and reuploaded it with a link to malware in the description. I took down the video with a copyright claim.
