 Indeed, it's difficult to believe that organizations like us need to 
 have such kind of "speedy procedures to remove things" in place when 
 some of those disputes (e.g. the SCO case mentioned by Adrian) took 18 
 years to be resolved.

 I'd like to believe that a mere "claim" should not be enough for us to 
 remove something in 48h or whatever short period of time. There must 
 be something of substance. Otherwise we would be at the mercy of 
 copyright trolls like SCO. 
  
 Thanks.
