    The rights holder first considers the size of the payout vs. the cost of legal fees.

    Just because they haven’t been sued directly for this doesn’t make it infringement.

        The statute of limitations is much longer than a year. It’s usually around 5.

        They can wait, see who’s made the money, then target them for a payout.
