this is as close as you're going to get to a fingerprint system for electronic media like this... there might be variants in the future, but they will all work on the image or audio - not the raw data

go thru the link i gave you
your wrong about what your saying
if the footprint of data is small enough each frame can be taged with the steg. data
be completely hidden in the whitespace, background and still stay there no matter what changes you make in formating.
it not script kiddie stuff but it is definately doeable.
that being said you still have the fair use problem to deal with, if the action is protected by fair use then your attempt to stop it are still censorship and actionable.
you can't TOS away fair use, because of the conditional nature of fair use.
You have to create an economic consequence that is independent of the fair use rights.
private trackers do this by forcing the uploaders to explain why they are choosing a less effective backup solution (public tracker) over the more effective (private tracker) and causing economic harm (lost seeders, non paying copies) to do it.
