RIAA, Safenet Sued For Malicious Prosecution 337

DaveAtFraud writes "Tanya Anderson, the single mother from Oregon previously sued by the RIAA — which dropped the case just before losing a summary judgement — is now suing the RIAA and their hired snoop Safenet for malicious prosecution. (Safenet was formerly known as MediaSentry.) Anderson is asserting claims under the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act and the Racketeer Influenced and Corrupt Organization Act. A reader at Groklaw has already picked up that she is seeking to have the RIAA forfeit the copyrights in question as part of the settlement (search the page for '18.6-7')."

Considering how much interest SourceForge's CompileFarm project had generated up until now, it seems likely that a larger company, like Google for instance, would very soon become aware of the wide ranging attractiveness of such a cross-platform testing service. Keeping in mind the broad readership Slashdot enjoys, I find myself wondering how far away we might now be from a larger company, with the processing power and bandwidth to spare, offering us a free cross-compatibility testing forum that obeys the majority of different OS coding factions' general acceptance.
