This is quite interesting. On surface, it may seem similar to the DMCA takedown mechanism, but the whole reason DMCA takedown works is because the movie company sets up stooges in the p2p swarm, and uploading to the swarm is the evidence that you are distributing content. Since there is no p2p network, the movie company stooge cannot really prove than anyone downloaded anything in a whatsapp group. So short of whatsapp's cooperation, which would break the e2e guarantee, this would not be possible.
