Additionally, each infringement after the rights to
redistribute under the GPL are considered a separate copyright
infringement, subject to individual penalties on its own.
Has the OpenWRT project submitted an official copyright
registration with the relevant copyright office in the country of the
project's origin? (assuming the Unites States here).
Doing so, and filling out the paperwork, sending in the
portions of the source and paying the fee makes it markedly easier to
prosecute in a court of law, should it need to go to that level.
