Yeah, I've got a legal opinion for you. You have no standing to
recover any damages and any suit you file would be subject to a
counterclaim for a frivolous lawsuit.

your money for your lost cause.
Ahhh but it wouldn't be a civil case; it'd be a criminal case.
The prosecution would be the crown or government.
And would still be a monumental waste of your tax revenue, but what
the heck, it's your money....
If there is the slightest chance that a legal precedent could be set
that would deter the likes of Apple or Sony disabling functionality
in consumer devices by remote control I would be ALL for spending
tax money on this.
And I would have thought that virtually anyone in the FOSS community
would have agreed. Excuse me for my error.
In the case of Apple or Sony disabling consumer devices, I agree, have
the crown start litigation against those companies if that is your goal.
