Sony Music made the first move in that fight last Friday.

Our individual donations are up 900% since Friday, and Eco (the German Internet association) are covering a significant chunk of the legal defense, but right now there’s a nominal liability of EUR 250,000 per query stacking up, and Sony has hired services to send queries and record the fact that they were responded to.

It’s particularly annoying, since we do cybersecurity and privacy, and this copyright-troll nonsense is supposed to be not our monkeys, not our circus.  But it appears to have pitched its tent on our doorstep.
