What they are doing is suing people who were looking for another piece of content because they successfully tricked them into violating the copyright.


if i download a tv show i paid for i am not breaking the law (because of fair use)

it only because of this mislabelled name that i might mistakenly download content i don't have a fair use right to download
So what your saying is something like the following is happening (this is just an example):

A guy goes to download the most recent episode of a TV show. Say for this example he is trying to download the most recent episode of Law and Order. What he gets is a file labeled Law and Order, but is actually an episode of Game of Thrones. Correct? Again I'm just using the titles here as an example.

If that is what you are claiming can you post to any case where this has successfully worked? It seems to me if you thought you were getting Law and Order and you have the right to download Law and Order then an obviously mislabeled filed is not your fault and would never hold up.
