This is the case peer-to-peer file sharers have been waiting for. Tanya Andersen, a 41 year old disabled single mother living in Oregon, has countersued the RIAA for Oregon RICO violations, fraud, invasion of privacy, abuse of process, electronic trespass, violation of the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act, negligent misrepresentation, the tort of "outrage", and deceptive business practices.
Ms. Andersen's counterclaims demand a trial by jury.

I'm surprised she missed out on jaywalking and keeping an exotic pet without a license.

I'm surprised extortion isn't one of her main claims against them. It's only mentioned once, later in the brief, but from the claims that are presented, it seems like one of the most damning and powerful charges she has.
I'm curious to see how this turns out. If she starts a legal fund, I'll probably donate to it.
