One of the website operators accused of copyright infringement by Righthaven LLC has retaliated, hitting the Las Vegas company with a class-action counterclaim seeking to represent defendants in all 57 Righthaven cases in Colorado.Alas, this is merely the Colorado defendants, but I am hoping to see Righthaven gets its clock cleaned in court, opening the door for a class action lawsuit on behalf of everyone else who was intimidated into settling. At a minimum, Righthaven is getting a little taste of what happens when you are on the receiving end of lawsuits--and we can only hope that bankruptcy is the result.
