@ber @nixCraft No. I know *personally* more than one person - teenagers at the time! - who was sued and chose to settle for 4 figures. In aggregate, absolutely we’re talking *millions*.

I’d make a snarky comment about overconfident dudes on social media, but, well.

@donaldball @nixCraft Thanks for your restraint. I'm only stating what I've seen. I've found no evidence of any teenager being successfully sued for millions for P2P file sharing. I think it's also true that many people use social media to foment outrage via exaggeration and that there are plenty of reasons to be outraged with a grounding in facts.

@ber Committed to pedantry, I see. We all make choices.
