Business Software Alliance

[Maury]

I just read where the Business Software Alliance (BSA) has fined a company for using more copies of a software than they had licenses for. Since BSA is a private organization, why does it have the authority to issue fines?

These aren't so much "fines" as settlements against possible legal action by the companies that the BSA represent.
