Except, they didn't need to prove the distribution.  He never denies actually distributing it.  The fact that it was on his website proves distribution.

jurisdiction.

Moving the case to CA, instead of holding it in NJ. That is the whole point, and one of the reasons the judge okayed it. Jurisdiction for internet cases can be moved to another venue if the prosecution can sufficiently prove connection to another state.

That is why they asked for twitter accounts as well, because direct contact (not just site hits) stands a lot better in the jurisdictional approach.

Which was the second arguement they made.  Not the first, which is what we were currently discussing, no?

Though unless it's like 50% i'm confused why sony thinks this would help them jurisdiction wise, unless like I said earlier, they plan to bring someone else into the lawsuit who lives in Caifornia.

Seems like fishing, just based on the fact that Cali is where the hackers like to hangout.
