alt Hacker NewsIts the obvious follow-up question. A civil suit needs to specify damages. I can't really see any material damages so I'm wondering what they would be. Stop being so antagonistic.

Investigation costs are considered part of remittances. There doesn’t need to be any “real” damages for a lawsuit to end in remuneration.
You expect you, an outside party, to have an answer to this within weeks of the attacks being discovered by the attacker?
Just because it's not obvious to you at this point in time does not mean the reasonable assumption is there is literally $0 in damages. One hour of investigation can easily cost thousands of dollars even if it arrives at the conclusion the attack was completely "benign."
