The page you link to at envirolaw.org is out of date by almost a decade. It is discussing the law as it was before Proposition 64. Proposition 64, which passed in 2004, among other things changed the part of section 17204 which said "any person acting for the interests of itself, its members or the general public" to "a person who has suffered injury in fact and has lost money or property as a result of the unfair competition".
