If you run an instance, don’t forget to register a DMCA agent with the US Copyright Office. If any of your users posts infringing materials, you can be held liable even if you had nothing to do with it; but, if you have a registered agent (and follow the other steps in §512) you are immune.

Happy new year from a copyright lawyer.
