That's why stage one of our scheme will be to provide a regularly updated list of content explicitly disallowed to be added to the tubes to Manwin. It will be up to them how they administer it, if they need more staff to check everything against the list so be it. When we have an API it can be automated, however that wont happen overnight.

Also, a UK company having it's content infringed in the USA is able to sue, it doesn't have to issue a DMCA, that's a US law, doesn't apply in the UK.

A whole can of legal worms is opening up here.
