Instead of settling out of court like many other suspected illegal file sharers, an accused file trader is fighting back against the Record Industry Association of America (RIAA).

Some of the charges include invasion of privacy, fraud, electronic tresspass, and violation of the Computer Fraud and Abuse Act.
