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.

This follows another recent
US court ruling that mum can't be held responsible for 13-year old daughter's file sharing.
While the RIAA's lawsuits to protect its copyright is not "illegal" and are within their right (under laws they lobbied for), perhaps this case will shed some light on their extortionist behaviour.
PS. Hope you didn't miss the Matrix reference in the title. =b
