ISP Ordered to Reveal Names

Posted by CmdrTaco on Monday July 13, 1998 @04:20AM from the what-do-you-folks-think dept.

Bob McCown writes "Im not sure if I like this or not. Several ISP's have been ordered to reveal the names of some of their users. Apparently they used a message board to attack employees of a Canadian company. Given the nature of the "threats" I tend to agree, but I also believe that this is a slippery slope, and could set a precedent for future abuse. "
