Yes. GoDaddy is extremely zealous about responding to DCMA notices regarding sites they host. I'm not sure how they respond to notices regarding sites they're just the domain registrar for, but they may do something.
Also, regardless of whether Chinese players can or can't read English, it doesn't help them for a Chinese-language site to serve them an outdated version of an addon that isn't translated into Chinese and may not even work on Chinese servers. The site could easily just provide a link to the author's official download page. Even if you don't speak the language, it's obvious which button is the "Download" button on both Curse and WoWInterface if you've ever used any website with a Download button.
