Here’s an interesting article I found talking about how the growing use of Wi-Fi will make it tougher for the trolls. I believe I remember reading something like this over in the P2P/Bit Torrent forums where a judge throughout or dismissed some of the claims as the defendants said they were on open and unsecured Wi-Fi networks and anyone could have accessed there IP address. I am getting ready to head out to work so I don’t have time to find the link to the thread on the P2P forum but will look for it tonight when I get home.
Matt, I wasn’t quite sure where to place this thread, if you think it would be better in another forum feel free to move it.

Yeah, judges really are starting to dislike the trolls filing cases using IP's..another example of playing the system, that is finally starting to turn around.

I had time to look and think I found the thread I was referring to, it was in the P2P/Bit Torrent group and was started by buddhapi. Here is the link to the thread if anyone is interested.
