I do not know what they do more recently. I know Perfect10 had main site's url removed. Not the subsequent. Not just main, as well as many others. You can still find it on certain pages.

That said, and more REALISTICALLY, when I have had to do DMCA's. 99% of the time, offenders just remove the content, and apologize. It is that simple. YouTube, Rapidshare, whatever.

Few times you have to go to hosts, processors, sponsors, law enforcement and the rest. Despite these endless threads on GFY battling wet paper bulls in the dark about what you will do, could do, gideon's bullshit. 99% are resolved with one notice, and it's over in my experience. I've talked to others at some of the shows, and the say the same. Occasionally there is some gideon gallery asshat, or Pirate Bay, but most simply comply because they know they are in the wrong and that is the end of it.
