Unless your hypothetical victim is independently wealthy, how are they going to afford the costs of litigation with dozens or hundreds of defendants? Seems like they'd need some sort of group, organized by a legal structure to fund such a venture...

Is this an ideological statement? In the US we have freedom of association, so I don't understand how they are "unjust". They are a natural result of the human desire for collaboration and growth, so I'm not sure I get that argument either. I don't think corporate entities should be allowed to participate in the political process, but it's a bit silly to say they shouldn't have the right to participate in the legal process.
