This example even goes beyond that. We're talking about content that isn't copyrighted. In such a situation, I don't think the DMCA even applies.

The DMCA is specifically about preventing the circumvention of DRM protection on copyrighted works. The question asked was about works that are public domain. No copyright means no DMCA.
