i believe you do reviews after because it would be insane not to, i think alot of people are saying, HEY HOW BOUT YOU GO TAKE A LOOK AT THESE SITES AND SEE IF MAYBE YOU MIGHT WANNA CHECK EM OUT TO SEE IF THEY ARE LIKE CONSENTING ADULTS AND STUFF

he has told you twice already that kiddie porn and copyright is two different departments with two different policies.
Logically that makes sense, because under age content can be determined just by looking at
copyright can not.
There are many examples of site owners trading content sets for traffic, in those case the content is clearly watermarked with the original site owners logo and name.
That would represent a licienced use of watermarked content. The whole point of the DMCA was that it gave you additional powers (takedown notice) and balanced them with the safeharbor provision to protect hosts/billing companies from abuse of those new powers (like demanding they staff people to verify every image).
