it's not a simple database query to remove stolen content.

Take the animations in the biab kits. They are the same UUID as the legit ones, show the original maker, and in fact are the same item as the legal ones(permissions do not change the UUID).

So to remove them from circulation, you would have to create new copies of them to send to the legit users. Then remove the old ones from the grid, and walk all your clients through the update to the new ones.

There is also the onus on hosting services to keep the content there, in case of a counterclaim. Which nets the original filer nothing but a real name to sue, but once that counter claim is filed the content must be restored completely.
