Find the uploaders and anyone infringing on your copyright. Find out where they live. Send them an email telling them you have logged and found them, so they try to hide the evidence which is what fucked the girl who got sued by the RIAA.
Set up a site with all the information and news on people being exposed as thieves and how they got screwed for doing it. Cases like the above and all her public information will be there. The guys who settle out of court are referred to a "A man in San Diego California recently settled for $2,000 for uploading porn movies to TorrentXZY." With the full story but no names. The guys who don't settle can have the full article and details on the site. Any news stories would be linked as well.
Then sue them, offering to settle out of court for a fee or going to court.
You will need to speak to a lawyer, sure you know a few, so as not to fall foul of extortion. But all the money made is put back into the kitty to go after other pirates.
As I said just an idea and might work or might not. Thieving music makes you an opportunist, thieving porn makes you a pervert. Neighbors would love to know you're doing that.

except you would be violating their privacy which depending on the country could have statutory damages as high 10k per instance, and actual damages in the millions.
As you say you are branding a person a pervert without a successful win in court.
