This statute is not tort law (civil code) and you cannot prosecute a criminal statute in a civil suit -- that right is the government's prerogative.
This whole debate on SOPA is a tempest in a teapot.

Yeah, and blocking of thepiratebay that in addition to Hollywood movies hosts tons of full adult site rip is going to achieve nothing for our industry. Blocking or bringing down filesonic and other filehosts that boast the same adult/mainstream duality is also hardly a noteworthy event. Just nothing to talk about. And also precedents and rules of conduct that will be forced upon mainstream tubes such as youtube under SOPA cannot be used by adult industry attorneys to force adult tubes to do the same. Our whole debate is pointless, nothing significant is going to happen. Thanks for letting us know.
