I assume most licenses out there are irrevocable? They're certainly a feature of copyleft licenses.

If someone posts copyrighted material they were not allowed to share then 3rd party servers still need to deal with DMCA takedown requests and false reports, regardless of TOS. An explicit license might help but by how much? It may also push some users away.
