Interesting read at HTTP gets an official status code for legal demands: 451 There is now a HTTP 451 status code for legal take downs !

HTTP status codes are a core part of helping your browser understand what to do with a page. You’re probably familiar with 404 — page not found — but there are a plethora of others, like 302, which help tell your browser a page has moved.
