So a manga I'm translating has just been licensed by Seven Seas. (Pic unrelated) What would happen if I continued to scan it?
I wouldn't be too crushed to let it go, but we're fairly close to catching up to the raws. On the other hand, I don't want to paint a big target on my head because I translate a bunch of other manga and one DMCA might bring the whole house down.

DMCAs mean absolutely nothing unless you're stupid enough to be releasing stuff under your full real name. The worst thing that they can do is shut down your blog in which case just start another. If you don't feel like going through that just to potentially have it shut down again, then just release shit on /a/. That's what I usually do.
The only person who can stop you from scanlating whatever the fuck you want is yourself.

I want to inseminate Riko.

I'd say; Keep doing it but release it under a different name.

Fuck the Seven Seas.

Put it on a different site, preferably one that laughs at takedown notices.

Thank god.
Anyway, just keep doing it. Don't be one of those faggots who bends over and tells everyone else to buy official translations. If you're worried about your blog being shut down just release your stuff directly on Madokami or something and post the links here on /a/.

Don't take money. This leaves a nice paper trail.
"Stop" translating immediately and distributing it immediately.
Anyone who continues it, would tie his guilt by using the same Username (on reddit) or somewhere else everytime.
Credit pages also tie attribution nicely to a specific scanlator.
Red Hawk ceased activity. Thankfully some unrelated guy picked up where they left off and releases chapters to reddit via imgur links or something. I doubt that it is the same guy.
