Ton of people do that, usually the ones that have some valid reason to be upset.
Content producers need to take all the steps possible to protect their works. Playing nice with Guba or Fusker or any other leech site is to give them a break. The only way to deal with them is directly through DMCA to them AND to their host(s) as needed. Hosting companies will get very tired of having to actively work on and answer each DMCA complaint (they are obliged to handle them).
You can make hosting this stuff VERY uncomfortable indeed. Deal with their reps here on the board means that there is no pain (except a little work, which mostly seems to be filtering search terms and deleting images you point to), which means if those search terms are reactivated or the images re-appear, you have no "get back". It is a truly smart move on Guba's behalf to having someone here doing this, but dealing with them in this manner is just allowing them to get another bite at the apple for free.
Protect your content, that is the only way it keeps value.
