the need for anonymous IP's become greater, as big brother can watch just about anything now
Another step for the major movie companies to combat piracy.

One of the Australian’s largest Internet service providers released a report, saying that thousands of the citizens will soon be accused of a crime by the Hollywood studios and demanded to settle for undisclosed amount or go to court. The “commercial invoicing” model is similar to what the Hollywood employs in other parts of the globe: some law company collaborates with a movie, music or game studios that don’t care what people think of them. With the help of a dubious bit of IP address harvesting applications, the copyright owner obtains something it claims are the real identities from Internet service providers. After this it’s only a matter of threatening to sue for an outstanding amount of money while “kindly” providing the offer to settle for less.
John Linton, head of the Australian’s Internet service provider Exetel revealed that the company had been approached by American movie distributor Lightning Entertainment. The copyright holder had a list of 150 IP addresses from which someone was sharing their film titled "Kill The Irishman". The same company is targeting nine thousand Australian-based copyright infringements.
Meanwhile, Lightning Entertainment uses a front firm to extort money from suspected violators under the name of Movie Rights Group. The latter’s employees are actually not talking about who they are, while their domain name is anonymised. However, it is known that there is someone named Gordon Walker, the outfit’s vice president of sales and marketing, who had said the web is the “ultimate unkillable beast”. Nevertheless, the Movie Rights Group represents a “commercial solution” to what the copyright owners had previously seen as a legal problem. Gordon Walker explained that one needs police on the information superhighway. Considering the fact the government would not go that far, it would be only up to Hollywood studios. According to his comparison, if one is pulled over by a traffic cop, he kind of expects that the latter has evidence that one has been speeding rather than simply pulls over the drivers that are slow enough to be caught.

Sure, we dont have to worry about viking raids or scurvy anymore, but instead we make a daily routine of sitting in flimsy, fibreglass (or metal) boxes full of gasoline which are propelled in opposing directions on the freeway at velocities matching that of low flying aircraft.
This is a roundabout way of saying that cars are dangerous....
Movie companies have been watching the swarm of torrents for years. This is quite strange considering they usually just email the individual user to cease and desist.

They can't prove anything from an ip address. What's stopping me from saying, "no I don't have a wifi password, didn't know you could have one, I guess people have been stealing my Internet". Unless they have proof of you Downloading their shit, **** em.

Hopefully the court appeal quashes the appeal.

Simple...Use an over write program to remove personal information. There are a number that write random 1's and 0's over nominated sectors.
