And you can bet that MPAA will weight in as amicus curae and tell the 
court " James Tyre and Wendy Seltzer Esqs. have conspired via email to 
bring this suit and should be prosecuted under the PATRIOT act as judicial 
terrorists!"

Hmm. That sounds like a rather more extreme case of what I proposed. In
"Tyre vs. Seltzer" (or whatever), there are two genuine parties. The only
odd bit is that the EFF would be backing both of them, but the source of
their finances is unlikely to be of interest to a court surely?
