I keep waiting for this to become an issue that bites LL in the ass... or at least the wallet. The fact that they don't remove infringing assets by UUID or ban repeat offenders falls far short of the hard line that most lawyers have advised other service providers to take. It's pretty clear to me that they're avoiding spending the money it will take to dedicate staff members to this. They're waiting for their hand to be forced, and most content creators don't have the money to take them to court for non-compliance in what is a probably a largely untested area. It almost makes me want to sic the Motion Picture Industry Association on certain infringers and see if LL's response differs when the big boys come to play.
