The publishers allege the shadow library is facilitating “staggering” levels of piracy. While the site’s owners are not likely to put up a defense, the publishers’ main goal appears to be to obtain an injunction that can apply further pressure on domain registrars and registries.
You do realize that they don’t actually know who runs the website, right? This is a lawsuit against a bunch of John Does. Nothing has changed, AA still exists, and likely will exist long after those lawyers doing the suing retire.
