Most likely the people actually implementing this system did raise potential issues to their supervisors. It's not the implementer that needs more education, it is the people who drive the implementer that needs better education in how to design systems.
But since it probably doesn't affect the bottom-line, it's unlikely to actually happen.
- miohtama 5y agoThere probably was risk discussion involved in some point of feature implementation. Lawyers got involved and the discussion likely went like this 1) DMCA Safe Harbor gives us, Google, unlimited protection 2) What are the users going to do any case? Sue us? Migrate to Microsoft Office 365? The minuscule amount of issues caused on 0.1% users is not going to hit our bottom line and the users cannot damage us. 3) We offer key account manager services for organizations large enough that could cause stir (Spotify size)

- kevin_thibedeau 5y agoIf the full DMCA process was implemented, takedowns could be immediately reverted and then the trolls would have to use the court system as intended. Abusive behavior from bad actors could then be addressed.
