      Yeah I hate the phrasing of the headline. Makes you sounds like they did turn it over. And then you get that last part of the sentence.

    I said this on the last repost as well.

    Obviously there are reasons the film studios want that but actually getting information because you suspect someone crimes a bit too hard online is really tough. Your evidence must be waterproof to get a subpoena and until then you can run into a plathera of different issues thanks to airtight GDPR rules that still apply to US companies as well (they updated them to be even more strict with their newer compliance laws last year).

    Actually there’s a good chance that sharing data or IPs without a subpoena could be not only devastating to any potential legal case, but also to Reddit. They will never do this because they stand to gain nothing from it as is and if they wanna go IPO they can’t pull such shakes moves rn.

    Obligatory IANAL, if you need legal advice, ask a lawyer because they need all your context and they will know the ins and outs of their field.

    This must be the reason every piracy community I know has strict rules about not requesting specific titles. Even if they had the IPs, I’m not sure what they could prosecute, especially considering the number of users who use a VPN.

      No no you don’t get it. The point is to hoard the movies. Not to watch them!

      They’re like Steam games: You collect more than you play.

    With CGI-NAT wouldn’t the actual list be as much useful as just all 4 billion ipv4 adresses?
