I'm pretty sure if M7 is a US citizen, he would have to obey copyright takedown orders regardless of where the server is hosted

That's a bit irrelevant, if the hosting provider is not bound by U.S. law or DMCA then there is no reason they'd need to supply details about the ownership of a host account to a U.S. based organization claiming DMCA. (assuming the host provider themselves bother to protect any of their own account information/logs/etc.)

In any case it seems this was mostly answered in the other post, Saidit does honor DMCA complaints/removals which means the host provider is likely in a country bound by DMCA (obviously not Switzerland)
