How is Sia going to behave about copyrighted material and illegal stuff?

Sia or the hosts would not be able to see the contents of data stored, I believe they are end to end encrypted. I would assume it is covered under terms of service.

For sure it is, but how to ensure that ToS won't be violated? Furthermore, the concept to take down a content seems to go against Sia principles...

Sia monitoring would probably go against decentralization concept. However, host could charge higher bandwith fee to discourage that kind of behavior, assuming copyrighted material used for redistribution. I believe there two different fees: one for disk space another for bandwith.
