Since there's no way to globally "publish" a file, I don't see how DMCA takedowns could work.

Hence why in my hypothetical it would take the copyright holder themselves to both upload the file as well as issue the DMCA takedown.

By uploading the file, wouldn't the copyright holder be authorizing the cloud service to store it for them?
