The question this raises in my mind is, why do these large and powerful organizations think it's worthwhile filing and winning these suits.  Their lawyers and the process cost them a fair packet, while the malefactors revel in their ability to escape the long arm of the law.  Suggests to me there's a deeper game going on.  Worth doing all this to make a careful show of protecting their rights against future malefactors who may be within reach?  I would be glad to be instructed.
