If a company goes out of business they are still required to keep the records for 5 years, otherwise they are liable for the jail time if they get busted.
Making sure the people that buy your content give you the urls where they are using the images (and video - if you're not taking the easy road and DRM'ing the vids prior to delivery) should help keep the Joe Stalkers to a minimum... for instance if you want to buy movie content from us, then you've got to provide me with a legitimate site that I can look at and approve before I will let you shop with me, and then when I come back to check for my content on your urls that you've given me for images (since my videos are DRM'd prior to sale) that you are using my content there.
There's nothing in the law that says you have to leave anything but the image, name and birthdate on the id. I realize that yes, people can find you that way, but they can find you many other ways, just by having a stage name...
No system is perfect, but I certainly don't want to be the one testing it in a criminal setting.
