Given the precedent of the DocX foreclosure signature fraud, the DirecTV smart card lawsuits, and the RIAA lawsuits, I think bulk lawsuits are a ripe territory for a combination of fraud and lawsuits with poorly thought-out evidence that only win because settling is cheaper. With the current system, there is an assumption that a human at least looked over the lawsuit before filing, but if programmatic lawsuits are made possible, we may see the first lawsuit that literally was not thought out at all before filing. In this case, I think it's best to retain a human element to the filing process, much like we have dead man's switches on trains.
