I would hope not. The copyrighted content seems to be the link rather than anything in the app.

Your example sounds like stopping notepad from rendering copyrighted content

From a technical perspective, you're absolutely correct.

From a regulatory perspective, it seems unlikely that most courts would appreciate the difference. In their mind - you run a website, and that website contains copyrighted content. Take it down.

You'd probably have to just blacklist the link in question to avoid a legal headache.
