After reading the article, it looks like the studios want the IPs to show that Frontier is allowing piracy on their ISP and they claim they don't want it for financial compensation.

[–] asteriskeverything@lemmy.world 9 points 2 years ago

This is true.

What I also gathered from the article (for further context) is that these are the same lawyers who tried to the other 2 cases of piracy on reddit. This time the argument is that it is not a violation of the first amendment right because they want the data to go after the ISP

End state capitalism, the coportocracy / oligarchy using the legal system they control to wield the fascist police forces against the people who don't behave like they're told. Meanwhile, taxing what little those people have to pay the salaries of those forces abusing them.

I mean, the studios are doing it right and following SOP.

They wrote the DCMA, used the congress they bought to pass it, the president the bought to sign it into law, and now will use the FBI and local militarized police to impose their will by force.

Constituon was an obstacle they did away with when they bought the Supreme Court.

They do realize IP can be changed by just resetring your router, right?

[–] derpgon@programming.dev 12 points 2 years ago

Not everyone. Also, they should just give them their private range IPs for the lols (192.168.0.0/16, 10.0.0.0/16 etc.).

Your ISP will still have a log of which IP was assigned to you at any date and time
