I guess I can answer that question. Depending on the set up, most "Anonymous VPN" providers wouldn't keep any logs at all. I've set up pop top servers before, for example. And by default they have no logging. It's a lot easier not to keep logs. Some of the providers of VPNs out there may have thousands of clients per server and it's simply not possible to keep logs of activity.

So really, there could be thousands or tens of thousands of people using the one IP address, and determining which one downloaded the torrent wouldn't be easily possible. Add to this the complexity of the law systems that the servers may exist in. A lot are in euro countries, asian countries etc.
