Actually, someone should file the suit now and use the public pleadings as an admission against interest. Doing so would serve a couple of purposes, not least of which might be to get the industry to back off.
I read an interesting story in our local paper this past week about the industry trying to dismiss a lawsuit it had filed against someone who, the industry discovered, was the wrong person -- the alleged violator was the defendant's adult daughter. At least in this case the defendant has a smart attorney who filed counterclaims, so even if the the primary suit is dismissed, the counterclaims remain. Ultimately it will depend on how ambitious the lawyer is whether the industry gets its comeuppance.
