Don't buy into the rhetoric and call it "consequences". It's always a choice to sue, a choice to prosecute, and this would be true even if these choices were made consistently and impartially (which they certainly aren't).

I wasn't meaning to attach a pejorative to "consequences", but the word does typically have that meaning so you're right to call me out. Perhaps "resulting legal issues" would be a better way to put it.

For the record, I think the consequence was grossly disproportionate to the action.
