I'm referencing this article: https://torrentfreak.com/film-companies-seek-torrenting-history-related-to-redditor-240220/

Given that they're expanding to reddit, I was wondering how dbzer0 is setup to handle similar requests. The legal help page for dbzer0 is just an e-mail address.

I don't understand all of how federation works, but couldn't they just roll their own instance and just collect all the data they get from federating?

AFAIK they would get the info "which user said what". The source would be what ever instance you are from tho, not your own ip. So the owner of a instance knows as much as everyone else.

Also, the elephant in the remains in the room: discussing piracy is not piracy.
