Well, that is the angle that lawyers are trying to use. You are responsible for your Internet connection. But, if a friend comes over to your house and uses your phone to call and threaten to kill someone it is not you that is responsible for what was said on your phone. It is your friend. The police have to prove you did it. They can not just say it is your phone so you are responsible. Why is it any different with Internet connections?
