you need to collect proof of guilt before you invade a persons privacy.

Shhhh, you don't know what you're talking about, again...
It's called a Doe Subpoena. From wiki "A Doe subpoena is a subpoena that seeks the identity of an unknown defendant to a lawsuit. Most jurisdictions permit a plaintiff who does not yet know a defendant's identity to file suit against John Doe and then use the tools of the discovery process to seek the defendant's true name.[1] A Doe subpoena is often served on an online service provider or ISP for the purpose of identifying the author of an anonymous post."
It's not a privacy issue, AT ALL - it's written into the laws!
