copyright laws are mostly ignored until crowdfunding starts to happen. this is usually because the companies don't openly disclose the entire accounting, but that's the reality of IP law. you want nostal shut down, then opening crowdfunded donations is the way to do that.
How about relocating the server to a country that doesn't pander to American companies? Russia for instance. Would it be feasible to relocate then donate, as the judiciary there wouldn't bother with the infringement?
