Which brings me to my next question -- One downloads an image which is still active/accessible on/from another site, but when uploading it to the host one finds and receives a ban notice. If we're being told that the image and its code number are banned then how/why was the image still active, accessible, and able to be downloaded at the other site? Its active/accessible at one place but dead/banned at another!   |
Several reasons: (i) the code number is not banned, as I very much doubt a DMCA takedown notice would mention it, the code is just used by some imagehosts to identify multiple versions of a banned pic; (ii) not all image hosts do as imagebam and identify banned pics this way, in particular (iii) some porn sites host their own pictures - which even VEF used to do, a long time ago, (iv) the hosts need to be notified that something is banned in the first place, which will only happen if they actually host it, somebody notices it and takes action.
