Even better, the mayority of the US citizens don't know the US legal system better than the non US citizens... I practically live in 2 countries because of work, one of them is the US but i am also a non-US citizen...
You must know some of the "wonders" of the US legal system, one of them is that not everything is based on the written law, most of them are based in precedents, jurisprudence, and if it is a jury trial, is not even about the law, if you convince those 12 people then you win the case, and sometimes the case doesn't even get to court not because of the law, it's because of avoiding bad publicity and court expenses...
So if the pirate sues you with a great lawyer and definitive proof that the malware was put by your company, who losses the most? your company or the pirate? your company, because even when the guy was a pirate, your company is supposed to be serious and if that case get to the media, no one will trust your software and BAM, your company lose money, if it is a judge, he'll rule according how the law applies to the charges of the lawsuit, if it's a jury they'll rule according to the lawyer that convinced them, and in both cases the charges are against your company... Last there is the settlement option, where the case doesn't get out to the media and you lose the amount accorded between both sides.
The best way is before doing that, consult with good lawyers what is the best way to protect your software and your behind at the same time in case of a lawsuit...
