The point was simply that validation is not an easy process, and may not be possible to implement in a meaningful form.

As I just remarked in the other thread (about the SFWA mess), I think a service could be built that would check content against Google Books. Then a publisher (or several of 'em) could lean on Scribd to check content on
upload. If they did that, they could avoid being accused of being pirate havens to begin with.
Though I don't know if Scribd would consider it in their interest to take that kind of precaution.
