Yes, the Digital Millennium Copyright Act. was used by the Scientology cult to get the identity of an individual posting in alt.clearing.technology called "Safe." They claimed to AT&T thyat Mr. Safe had violated their copyrights and AT&T simply handed over his identity regardless of the fact that it was against his Constitutional rights, the fact that no copy right violation had taken place, and the fact that the cult's ringleaders had been trying to years to acquire his identity to shut him up after discussing his detailed knowledge of the internal working of the cult.
