Serving a writ isn't proof of guilt. Those served can have their day in court.

IP address is only the first step. Having more evidence is always best. Asking a defendant why he refused his chance to clear himself and not go to court is allowed. Asking for proof he has a WiFi is also allowed. Ages of sons is also allowed.

I'm all in favour of more companies following the Liberty route. Sue the file locker, settle out of court with money and the record of downloaders, IP, email, history of downloads, bank accounts. Then sue the bastards for real money.

Then sell the list to someone else to see if the same IP address comes up.
