You’re incorrect about the DMCA when you say “DMCA treats ‘linking’ to illegal
contents as illegal as the contents themselves”. You must knowingly link to
works that clearly infringe somebody’s copyright. A link to the Israel.TV

The plaintiff’s won a default judgement, because the defendants didn’t show up
in court. But they could not have shown up in court, because they were only
listed as “John Does” in the lawsuit. Thus no defendant could have “actual
