I wonder if anyone has written something to find and independently assess the validity of these bulk false DMCA take downs.

Honestly, I'm guessing a ambitious law firm could actually make a good class action suit against these offenders.

Seems like broad, real damages could be justifiably demonstrated.

If only we could retool SCO for a force-for-good?

Weren't there environmental laws that a private party could sue an offender over and would get a portion of the federal fines?

Seems like a free-market solution that the right would get behind. :)
