the safe harbor says

If it does discover such material before being contacted by the copyright owners, it is instructed to remove, or disable access to, the material itself. [512(c)(1)(A)(iii)], [512(d)(1)(C)]

The entire argument is that disabling access is not enough you have to remove the file too.


but i do find it interesting that he is making the access shifting argument
