UK ISP forced to hand over 9,000 user details of porn downloaders
 

O2 had been fighting Ben Dover, a pseudonym of Lindsay Honey, who performs in, directs and produces pornography, along with his company Golden Eye International, set up in 2009.

Dover’s company demanded the details of those it suspected of using peer-to-peer networks to illegally download the copyrighted content.

It also said it had a draft warning letter ready to go demanding £700 ($1,120) from each and every alleged downloader. If all of those accused paid the settlement fee, it would amount to £6.3 million ($10m).
