This is going a bit far....While it still doesn't really affect me personally but I can see how this will just continue to piss people off.

Keep in mind that the IP logs are to prove the distribution and the state of the downloader/viewer. Its to be used againt Geohot, not against the owners of those IPs.

This is what I thought, but as usual the anti-sony brigade comes down with the third degree. We are all being monitored anyway and soon this information will be made available to all comapanies, like our suppose to be private car registration numbers was but now isn't in the UK.
Everytime I reboot my router I get a different IP anyway so what good is it to use against most people who have dynamic IPs.

but your ISP knows exactly what IP you had at what time.
now, this is not directed at you personally, but in general:
people should really not think that the internet is some kind of anonymous space. its very much a public area, even if you are sitting in your cosy home, you are mistaken if you consider it privacy.

I am only considering the current scenario with sony.
From what I gather all Sony are getting is a list at a certain time. To then track down an IP that has changed since is an other warrant, which they may or may not requestet - but I doubt they would request it for reasons earlier stated.
You are right, the internet is not an anonymous space - unless you know how to access certain proxies, but that's another matter and not the norm.

exactly. They cannot even make a case using information they get from the IPs they are getting. For all intents and purposes, these IPs do not exist outside of this case.
