Somebody is uploading a copyright protected work using their real IP? Could anyone be that dumb?

I was talking about a watermarked file which is being used to trace the original purchaser. If you share the file with a friend and in the end it winds up on a file sharing site "they" might not care and go after you, but you and those in between can get off the hook by pointing police to the next person in line.

In the end the point is that copyright owners do deserve some protection and some reasonable means of going after the file sharers. If you have that much confidence in your local justice system then I can only advice you not to share ebooks under any circumstances.
