some dude has been sending in cheques once a month for 8.3 years?? I think that must be a world record for loyalty!
LM content is damn hot and worth tracking out IPs for.
In other news, Davenport Lyons is up in court in March charged with "knowingly targeting the innocent"
Quote:
In a submission to the Tribunal, the SRA says: "Each of the respondents knew that in conducting generic campaigns against those identified as IP holders whose IP numeric had been used for downloading or uploading of material that they might in such generic campaigns be targeting people innocent of any copyright breach."
"An IP address does not however necessarily lead to a conclusion that the ISP account holder has infringed copyright or authorised another person to infringe copyright. There were other factual possibilities known to [Gore and Miller] such as unauthorised access or a change in IP address after a 24-hour gap following modem switch off follow or other such occurence."
...
Gore and Miller also disregarded the harm the campaign of legal threats might do to Davenport Lyons' reputation, regulators claim, in breach of the Solicitors Code of Conduct.
Davenport Lyons declined to comment, citing the ongoing investigation.
