    No, they should calculate a checksum for the infringing file

    They DO.

    This would still not prevent people from uploading the file again if they really want to, but they would have to modify it in some way (for example package it into a new zip file) which is a lot more work than just uploading it unchanged.

    Yes, that is correct, except the part about it being “a lot more work”.

    Thiomersal is added as a preservative ... i.e. make it safer for longer

    That is not what a preservative does. Formaldehyde is a very effective preservative but that does not make it safe for human consumption.

    Preservatives are chemical stabilizers and/or toxins intended to prevent biological activity. To preserve things intended to go in the human body, you have to use a preservative that is non-toxic to humans in that concentration, and that doesn’t build up gradually to toxic levels.

    E.g. salt is toxic in high concentrations but is safely used as a preservative. Suppose a 28 gram portion of cooked sausage contains 183 mg sodium; that is a concentration of over 6,500 PPM. However it is perfectly safe when it dilutes in the human body, and since salt is extremely water-soluble it normally flushes out of the human body long before it could build up to a toxic level.

    I - and everyone I know - has at some point had measles or mumps.

    I haven’t, and I can’t think of anyone I know who has had them. I did have the chicken pox, but that’s mild enough that they don’t vaccinate against it.

    Unless you’re trying to say that anyone who was vaccinated for measles has “had measles”, which is ridiculous.
