Looks like the RIAA is getting sued for abusing the legal system and taking advantage of citizens who cannot afford to risk their day in court.

'Despite knowing that infringing activity was not observed, the record companies used the threat of expensive and intrusive litigation as a tool to coerce Ms Andersen to pay many thousands of dollars for an obligation she did not owe,' the countersuit states, 'The record companies pursued their collection activities and this lawsuit for the primary purpose of threatening Ms Andersen (and many others) as part of its public relations campaign targeting electronic file sharing.
Anderson even offered to hand over her computer for inspection after which the original lawsuit against her was dismissed only for the record companies to file a new one.
'The continuing victimisation of Ms Anderson and the unwillingness of the record companies to conduct even the most basic investigation before turning her life upside down betrays the total lack of concern they have for any concepts of fairness, due process and the rights of the individuals who they have wrongfully targeted,' her lawyer, Lorry Lybeck, told p2pnet.
