Honestly I find it incredibly silly companies are still sending out notices to take down copyrighted content. Give up already. The battle is lost and now it's purely a waste of time and money.
Malicious doesn't mean copyrighted.
True, but the submission refers to something called 'Piracy Shield', so copyrighted material seems pretty relevant.
Companies like Google and Cloudflare just really don't care that they host malicious content and have stopped taking meaningful action to take down reported content. That they'd be blocked at some point is completely unsurprising. As it is, I have to explain to people regularly that clicking on "sponsored" links, or whatever Google calls them, doesn't work because we have to block "googleadservices.com" due to their…

As long as the potential impact exists (and that impact can be huge), they have the time and money to do those takedowns

well big companies use thousands of virus scanner, so this shouldn't be a big issue.

They will happily boot legal websites off while defending animal torture and CSAM. I’ve made many reports to Cloudflare, Google, and the FBI when I come across said websites and so far I have yet to see any be even kicked off Google search let alone Cloudflare.
If you are connecting from an Italian ISP to https://mil04s43-in-f1.1e100.net you're going to be greeted by a message from AGCOM telling you the website has been used to spread copyrighted content. This already happened with a Cloudflare CDN before. https://community.cloudflare.com/t/blocking-of-my-website-vi... https://imgur.com/a/EKFHROX
How can they do that with HTTPS though?
HTTP sure they can happily MITM and redirect, but with HTTPS you need a valid cert.

The pirates lost, I know one other person besides me that collects movies to watch offline outside of subscription services. The legal actions against free streaming sites prevents any serious competitor to Netflix, Disney-Hulu etc, which are hugely valuable properties.

DNS.
Connecting with https prevents any DNS poisoning, unless the ISP managed to get a fraudulently issued certificate or a MITM root CA installed on the end users' devices. Neither seem likely.
