Federal Judge Criticizes Lawyers Involved in "Porn Trolling Collective"

Lawyers from Prenda Law pressured people to settle porn copyright suits in order to avoid be revealed as an illegal porn downloader

A federal judge is slamming copyright lawyers tied to a firm known as Prenda Law for launching a multimillion dollar "porn trolling collective."

Judge Otis Wright told the lawyers' state bar associations they'd engaged in "moral turpitude" by coercing people to settle porn copyright suits or else be outed as illegal porn downloaders.
