Depends where they sue him but regardless, when Disney’s lawyers serve you for x- million you have to lawyer up, that costs big money… can you afford a lawyer that would go up against Disney’s legal team…? I couldn’t…
Realistic likely hood: out of court settlement for 10s of millions.
Court settlement: who the fuck knows but realistically if your defense rests on ‘it wasnt me that leaked it i was hacked’ I suspect you best have the receipts to back that up in court and have experts willing to testify under oath…! Regardless of legal precedent and standing copyright law a part of the Mouse’s legal team would also be leaning on the politicians, judges and press to make 'an example, bare that in mind…
This is a firm that can hire Info-Sec specialists to prove that he wasn’t hacked and the exact path of the data and hold them in contract, well, permanently… it’d be like going toe-to-toe with the US government only laser focused and far more efficient… would you want to get into a he-said-she-said with the NSA…? No? Imagine if the NSA just wanted to fuck you up…! That’s what’d happen… The Mouse would financially cripple him or drive him to suicide…!
Disney is a monopoly with power akin to a nation state when it comes to their industry…!
If people get their hands on this game, via him, his life is pretty much over…
