PasteBin itself is a DMCA notice magnet already for some very litigious people, as I know from having read through more public DMCA notices than most people would bother reading through. So if you're worried about legal liability, consult a lawyer to make sure that your technical solution would actually help you in court.

There's something called "willful blindness" that you might want to understand if you plan to run a PasteBin clone where people could be expected to post magnet links to pirate content. You could also do worse than to have a lawyer explain your DMCA obligations to you, too. If people start posting pirated stuff to your site, you're going to want to be very clear about them, lest you find out that you technically don't have DMCA safe harbor because you flubbed one of the requirements.
