File that under 'never going to happen'. The costs to pursue (let's just assume the 'offender' is in the US in the first place) vs the reward for success aren't worth it. Just ask the RIAA how many MP3 sharers they sue, or better yet how many publishing companies file lawsuits against people sharing eBooks. Both of those involve financial losses and have big companies behind them.
We could argue this all day of course, and in the end I'm not suggesting someone do this. I'm pointing out that if someone did, there's nothing that would be done about it. At best the original authors would be able to keep it off of Curse and this site. That's pretty much it.
