To combat this infringement, BMG “enlisted the help of Rightscorp, Inc.,”
which monitors internet activity “for peers offering its clients’
copyrighted works.” When infringement is detected, “Rightscorp records the
peers’ Internet Protocol (“IP”) addresses and then generates notices to the
ISPs providing internet access to” those addresses. However, Rightscorp
changed its source code used to identify infringement after 2013, during
the period when “BMG had a duty to preserve that evidence.” Specifically,
Rightscorp admitted to “altering the source code, deleting portions of the
source code, and [] overwriting portions of the source code without
maintaining a record” of any of those changes.
