Moderation does not have an impact on the service's legal liabilities, at least not as far as criminal law is concerned. Search Decency Act in this thread for the details.
It's slightly ambiguous currently with regards to copyright law because of a recent decision, but the DMCA safe harbor provisions obviously had the same intent: it'd be counter-intuitive to make providers suffer for trying to do the right thing.
- michaelt 9y agoI'm not saying anything about legal liability. Youtube might have decided not to host porn as a pure business decision - e.g. so workplace and school content filters won't block youtube.com as pornographic. Khan Academy and suchlike couldn't host with youtube if it meant you couldn't access their videos from schools! Once Google has made the business decision that they don't share pornographic videos on youtube.com, it seems reasonable they wouldn't allow them to be shared via drive.google.com either.
