Yes, but the spam companies at least filed under their own name. Running a lawsuit with a John Doe plaintiff is a little bit harder, and requires finding a cooperative lawyer and judge. The really hard part is proving that you're the rightful owner of the copyright while remaining anonymous (in particular, proving you're the *same* anonymous person who wrote the code). At this point, it helps if you posted the item in question signed with a pseudonymous PGP key that you control, or have other ways to prove that your anonymous is the author's anonymous.
