Sorry, I wasn't being clear enough.
Yes, you can filter for files
already taken down for copyright violations by adding hashes. What about
new files?
And I suspect it would be fairly trivial to modify files which had already been taken down so they could be re uploaded and slip past the filter, yet sill be usable.
I think I feel the same way about stuff like this as I do about applying DRM. Go ahead and do it if it makes you feel better, but don't expect it to be terribly effective in actually stopping piracy.
