This is funny, but from the article it also seems like a pretty frivolous law suit that is more of a shakedown racket than protecting the actual business.

From the article: this amounts to only about 20 videos per year and the evidence is based on home IP addresses of employees. Such as: “The father of a Meta contractor whose home IP address allegedly downloaded 97 videos. Strike 3 suggests this links Meta to more infringement. Meta counters that it only proves someone’s dad is super into porn and has no VPN”.

Pretty weak evidence of any malfeasance on Meta’s part.

The linked article mentions there was torrenting activity from Meta's ip blocks as well:

>This prompted Strike 3 and Counterlife Media to search for Meta-linked IP addresses in their archive of collected BitTorrent data. This scan revealed that forty-seven IP addresses, identified as owned by Facebook, allegedly infringed their copyrighted works.

Another article explains that there were more IPs (not officially registered for Meta) and more movies [1]
