In legal news that has nothing to do with midterms or Trump or Mueller, and everything to do with porn and copyright: A DC federal judge issued a scathing opinion today against a copyright troll that goes to court to unmask anonymous Bittorrent users ecf.dcd.uscourts.gov/cgi-bin/show_p… 
Basically, this company gets the IP of a user who uses Bittorrent to get copyrighted porn. The company sues, and asks the court to order the internet service provider to identify the user. The judge notes there are a lot of problems with this approach
There are a ton of these cases nationwide. The judge today denied a request for early discovery to unmask a user, saying the request wasn't specific enough to outweigh a person's privacy interest. Just an interesting ruling on a copyright issue that I wanted to point out
