At the same time, technological measures can show it to them that they can't feasibly take it down and that they're fighting a losing battle. At some point the RIAA will just have to accept defeat because honestly it's not that much work to defeat their DMCA takedowns.

Right now they're issuing what, 1 takedown notice to GitHub? When we make that 100,000 takedown notices, some in ROT13, some in ROT24 on an Israeli server, some in RSA encryption on a Chinese server with keys published on Russian servers, maybe they'll just be too overwhelmed with paperwork at that point.

Add some honey-pots with unrelated content and counter-sue them for circumventing encryption on copyrighted content. Because how would they know what is encrypted unless they circumvented it without permission ... unless they perjured themselves?
