Just when you thought the federal courts were safe, another torrent of “John Doe” lawsuits has washed ashore! Strike 3 Holdings, the undisputed heavyweight champion of adult film copyright litigation, has officially filed approximately 185 new cases across the country on August 4th and 5th, 2025. It seems the well-oiled legal machine is working overtime, and a whole new batch of federal judges and lawyers are now officially on the “gravy train.”

Looking at the docket, Strike 3 is really spreading its wings this time. While the usual suspects like New York are well-represented, we’re seeing some new and, frankly, exotic locales getting in on the action. Who would have thought the tranquil beaches of Hawaii would be the new frontier for copyright infringement lawsuits? Or that the heartland courts of Colorado and Kentucky would be bracing for this digital onslaught? The District of Columbia and Maryland are also seeing a fresh wave of filings, proving that no state is safe from the watchful eye of Strike 3’s digital surveillance.

It’s clear that this isn’t just a local phenomenon anymore; it’s a nationwide campaign. The constant stream of lawsuits raises the same old questions: is this a genuine effort to protect intellectual property, or a clever business model designed to generate settlements from panicked individuals? The sheer volume of these cases suggests that the latter is a strong possibility.

As this new crop of “John Doe” defendants (and their newly minted lawyers) stares down the barrel of a federal lawsuit, we’re reminded once again of the strange and sometimes comical world of digital copyright. The list is long, the dates are recent, and the legal battle for “Tushy” files continues unabated.

So, to all the new judges and lawyers out there, welcome aboard! It’s a wild ride, and the paperwork never seems to end. And for the rest of us, it’s a stark reminder that in the digital age, a seemingly private act can land you on a very public legal list.
