FWIW Danbooru complies with artists requests to remove all of their work.
- tofof 7y agoSuch compliance may protect Danbooru itself from some specific causes of action, particularly if Danbooru is able to convince the court that they were truly innocuous middlemen and that the site itself was not designed from the ground up to facilitate such infringement. Such a task would be an uphill battle in most jurisdictions subject to the Hague Convention. However, all of that is irrelevant when the concerns are the distribution of the site's contents by torrent, or the use of those copyrighted images in making derivative works. In both cases the party in question is now first-party to the concern, either the distribution or the derivation.
