fpqc- I think the consensus among moderators was that we had no interest in enforcing DMCA proactively. We certainly won't take any action in the absence of a takedown notice from the owner of the material, and i think even then the sense was that that was an issue from whoever was hosting the material, not MathOverflow as a site.
