RIAA, Safenet Sued For Malicious Prosecution

Posted by kdawson on from the what-goes-around dept.

DaveAtFraud writes "Tanya Anderson, the single mother from Oregon previously sued by the RIAA — which dropped the case just before losing a summary judgement — is now suing the RIAA and their hired snoop Safenet for malicious prosecution. (Safenet was formerly known as MediaSentry.) Anderson is asserting claims under the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act and the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organization Act. A reader at Groklaw has already picked up that she is seeking to have the RIAA forfeit the copyrights in question as part of the settlement (search the page for '18.6-7')."

    My guess is no she doesn't.
    If you had bothered to RTFA before posting you would have noticed that she is suing Atlantic Records.
