What would you rather focus on: making money or defending yourself against false claims and suing people for the damage they caused to your business?

Which many would be glad to pay in order to have the hosts on their side, if they are abiding by the law and not engaged in piracy of course.

It still puts an unnecessary burden on hosts, registrars, billers, anyone doing business online.
Besides, this was only one example. The whole reputation rights issue opens a whole new can of worms.
