Legal action
The holding company of Vixen Media Group, Strike 3 Holdings, has as of 2023[update] filed over 12,000 lawsuits since 2017 against people it alleges has infringed its copyright by illegally downloading its films via BitTorrent.[7][8][9] Strike 3 Holdings pressures the accused to settle, often with the implication that otherwise their use of pornography will be exposed. Few cases reach trial, with most being settled for four- or five-figure sums or dismissed. DC judge Royce Lamberth has described Strike 3 as a "copyright troll" that utilizes "cut-and-pasted complaints and boilerplate discovery motions" to "flood" courts with cases "smacking of extortion", describing its treatments of courts "not as a citadel of justice, but as an ATM".[9]
