Do you mean those BusyBox "copyright holders" who *cannot* go to
federal court in the Second Circuit seeking redress because THEY
HAVE NO REGISTERED COPYRIGHTS and therefore no standing to sue?

The SFLC is not too timid. . . they're too freakin' DUMB to pursue
them. Verizon told the SFLC to kiss their Tyrian purple ass and
the SFLC filed a voluntary dismissal WITH PREJUDICE so that Verizon
wouldn't kick their dumb ass all over the courtroom.
