Viacom gets its way in court; Google forced to cough up FULL USER INFO for anyone that's EVER watched a vid at YouTube.

click thru to the more info, which is an article at EFF about this utterly fucktastic ruling by the federal court in the Southern District of New York.

In any event, the court ordered production of not just IP addresses, but also all the associated information in the Logging database. Whatever might be said about 'an IP address without additional information,' the AOL search history leak fiasco shows that the material viewed by a user alone can be sufficient to identify the user, even with neither a login nor an IP address.


emphasis mine.
