Innocent people are getting the quasi blackmail letters, that's the point.
Old people being accused of downloading nazi gay porn. Not nice, is it?

Me too, but they don't do that, do they? They send them quasi blackmail letters, which is what I object to.
I can't find a case where there was extra 'evidence' presented. They do the blackmail letter and people confess. I cannot see records of HDD being scanned to prove the file was there etc. (Not saying that never happened, saying I cannot find such a case).

What? You think it is GOOD PR to sue potential customers.
You amuse me no end.
