I'd settle for the government prosecuting every false copyright claim as perjury.

    You say that because you're not think of all the times corps beat a valid claim...

    Meaning suing a corp now opens you up for criminal charges if you don't win, and less people challenging thru court.

    You might be better off asking if something would be a good idea, before thinking of something and immediately recommending it despite not thinking about how it would obviously backfire and end up fucking us over more.

    Not necessarily. The standard of proof is different. Just because you couldn't prove to the civil standard (on the balance of probabilities) that they infringed your copyright, it doesn't mean the claim was false to a criminal standard (beyond reasonable doubt).

    First you said every one...

    Now you're saying just some...

    This isnt going to be productive, best of luck with your future endeavers. But I won't be available to answer any other questions.
