Was just answering the question, not saying to go out and do it because they can't touch you. I researched this a bit when I had a social networking site in 2003 and they were posting images that looked stolen as their profile image. It appeared it was better to not moderate at all than to remove things that might be infringing. I didn't dig too much deeper because I got rid of the site soon after.
