    The end of John Doe IP cases?

    "A possible landmark ruling in one of the mass-BitTorrent lawsuits in the U.S. may spell the end of the ?pay-up-or-else-schemes? that have targeted over 100,000 Internet users in the last year. District Court Judge Harold Baker has denied a copyright holder the right to subpoena the ISPs of alleged copyright infringers, because an IP-address does not equal a person."
