- papercrane 2y agoCopyright infringement is a strict liability offence, so not having intent isn't a defense. However, in this scenario you'd very likely have a good "innocent infringement" defense, which would allow the judge to lower the statutory damages to as low as $200. Since the damages available are so low it wouldn't be worth suing over.
