I'm sure 100's of other webmasters would as well. Even those from EU, Asia, etc shouldn't have a problem tossing in a few bucks or a few hundred each.
Anyone wanting to do the math can figure it out, that it could add up to a sizeable war chest.

This will be done right. One of the issues that we will be discussing tomorrow during the conference call with the law firm that has agreed to handle this is the formation of a legal association. The association is necessary so that legal action can be taken by the association on behalf of it's members. Very much like how the FSC lawsuit was filed on behalf of all FSC members.
Again, we are just now starting to look into the details, but I believe that anyone who makes a contribution will become a member of the association to the extent of their contribution. So, if you were to say contribute 5% of all money collected by the association, you would be entitled to 5% of any recovery received by the association.
That being said, everyone will need to understand that while we intend to pursue damages and penalties, that is a secondary goal. The primary goal will be to take down the first few, sending a message to the rest. If the rest don't get the message, then we will have to repeat the message directly to them, just a tad bit louder.
