It will be a large database where files which have been uploaded have their
filename, description and known file hashtags compared, and where there is a
match, you are redirected to somewhere you can purchase the item
legitimately. No doubt Amazon (and possibly others) have provided a database
to file sharing websites. This matching could be done in seconds so the file
quickly disappears.

 

It's a win win, the companies like Amazon get referrals, and the file
sharing websites protect themselves against hosting obvious illegal content.
