That means that 99% of everything posted on this site should be removed, you know such as the BikerBloke, Ronald Cobb, creators of Space Battleship Yamato, Art Adam, DarkerEve, trashman333, OzTheFreak98, SamRockwell420, ect. ect. ect. from this thread alone.
Unless you are posting your own work, something fairly rare around here, then the quantity of material is irrelevant. Once a person presses a shutter button, puts pen, pencil, charcoal to paper, digital pen or mouse to a tablet to create something, the creation belongs to the creator. Copyright does not require any sort of watermark, nor does it require registration. It exists by creation.
So are you advocating for the site to close? Are you advocating for the site to remove 99% of all of its content? I see no one lodging this same complaint in the Naked Charity Calendar thread where 100% of many paid for calendars are posted. How about the Anim3? Manga thread, the various move & tv threads. All known produced and paid for materials that are being posted here.
If the mods wish to remove the Laser Lass posts, then so be it, but lets not play the hypocrisy game, shall we. We all know where the overwhelming majority of this stuff comes from.
