An Interview with a Guy Who's Being Sued for Pirating Teen Anal Nightmare 2
Adrian Chen · 03/13/11 04:00PMThe saga of West Coast Productions' porno Teen Anal Nightmare 2 is long and twisted. Last November, the law firm Adult Copyright Company filed a record-breaking lawsuit against 9,729 anonymous BitTorrent users who allegedly pirated the film. A Judge threw it out, ruling that each defendant would have to be sued individually. The Electronic Frontier Foundation singled out the lawsuit as a particularly egregious example of "copyright trolling." "The motivation behind these cases appears to be to leverage the risk of embarrassment associated with pornography to coerce settlement payments despite serious problems with the underlying claims," the EFF wrote in a statement.
