Re: Is this a copyright troll or something?

Legally, the ESA cannot do anything since they do not own anything of the companies mentioned. Their C&Ds just amounts to "stop, or we'll snitch." It is up to publishers to decide if they want to take legal action.
It's probably an automated tool, likely using "AI" to assist it.
The ESA represents those corporations. They could have simply asked their members "hey, we got this new automated DMCA takedown tool that uses AI to find infringing content online. Want us to use it to protect your copyright?" and since AI is the new buzzword, the CEOs and shareholders went "yeah, that sounds awesome, go ahead".
