I forgot about the rootkit thing.
And wait, what? suing over watching a youtube video? I never heard about this
When Sony was suing George Hotz over his PS3 jailbreak video, they also tried to bully Youtube (or possibly Google, I forget if this was post-Google acquisition) into revealing the IPs and identities of everyone who watched the video so they could attempt to sue them for "piracy" also. Obviously they did not succeed, but the fact that they tried says a lot.
Probably would have succeeded if it was in a japanese court against a Japanese company.
Which I think its why these Japanese companies specifically feel emboldened to do stupid shit like that.
