IP-Address Is Not a Person, BitTorrent Case Judge Says
http://torrentfreak.com/ip-address-n...e-says-110503/
Quote:
Among other things Judge Baker cited a recent child porn case where the U.S. authorities raided the wrong people, because the real offenders were piggybacking on their Wi-Fi connections. Using this example, the judge claims that several of the defendants in VPR?s case may have nothing to do with the alleged offense either.
?The infringer might be the subscriber, someone in the subscriber?s household, a visitor with her laptop, a neighbor, or someone parked on the street at any given moment,? Judge Baker writes.
