    Not necessarily. The standard of proof is different. Just because you couldn’t prove to the civil standard (on the balance of probabilities) that they infringed your copyright, it doesn’t mean the claim was false to a criminal standard (beyond reasonable doubt).

      I’d settle for the government prosecuting every false copyright claim as perjury

      First you said every one…

      Now you’re saying just some…

      This isnt going to be productive, best of luck with your future endeavers. But I won’t be available to answer any other questions.
