Not true.

"We don’t have to pay for our lawyer’s time. Hundred of thousands or millions dollars’ worth of lawyer time are being donated. But we still have to pay things like photocopying and court filing. And so far we have never lost a case, there were no penalties or compensations to pay." - http://stefanmey.wordpress.com/2010/01/04/leak-o-nomy-the-ec...




A solid fraction of 200k, massive legal fees, and things like photocopying and court filing can be the same thing. Court costs add up fast. If they where paying for everything then you would expect 10's of million / per year in legal fees.
