Depends on the acts therin I guess if its not indecent or showing illegal activetiess it comes down to copy right style C&D take downs to get rid of it.
Cartoon/drawen stuff comes down to how much of a hard on the local law system has for it....

What is a "NERD NATOR"?
Do you destroy and kill nerds(figuratively speaking of course)? Are you anti-nerd. I mean I am, so I'm not complaining but something tells me that you might be one. Could be wrong though.
