Yep, both are needed. The notices will make it easier for Kobo/etc. to see that something fishy (if not outright illegal) is going on from a seller. Then they'll be more likely to do something over the take down notices.

Even the removal of said notice will help, as it shows the seller is knowingly violating it.
