You people don't know anything. No company can just take down a website (Unless they host that company and its within their TOS to do so), the company who has a problem with the website would contact the webhost to ask for them to take it down and if that fails they will take the person to court to get a court order for the website to be shut down. If they do not comply with the court order they can get a fine and a prison sentance.
Anyway the IWF (Internet Watch Foundation) are only for child abuse images hosted worldwide and criminally obscene and incitement to racial hatred content hosted in the UK.. like it says on the homepage.

IWF take partly control in that, but also deal with: Hacking, DNA Breachs, Copyright Breaches and all the other stuff I've not got time to go into detail about.
They CAN take down the website. If the host doesn't comply, they would take down the host - on their own server or not they have the power.

To the person who said they are like the Government of the internet, they actually are part of the government. And Ditto Adam, he took my words from my mouth over the DNA Breach.

They're really part of Scotland Yard but I cba telling you stuff we learnt in Modern Studies. Anyway, yeah you could if you want I suppose. However you have the chance of them claiming the Official Badge to be THEIRS if you don't put a copyright!
