I scrolled down and found another copy of the same book without the notice...but it was a little weird to come across this

Yeah, there are piracy websites that comply with DMCA notices but, like Youtube in the olden days, it's basically whack-a-mole on the copyright holders' part because they have to give individual notices for each pirated copy. So like you say, you can probably find other copies anyway.

It had happened to me before, it depends from book to book, try another source.
