The complaints have no teeth so they aren't afraid of being bitten by them. They get a 'please take down these scenes' and that's it. If it were 'please take down these scenes and you also owe me 12K in legal damages' they would have reason to monitor their own sites more proactively.
That is exactly the kind of legislation I expect to come eventually. Standardized liquidated damages for illegal use of content on a per occurrence basis prorated by the number of downloads, or number of views, or length of time it was allowed to be viewed etc....
