well, well
More on NZfact spying on kiwis, apparently turning out that their advanced peice of software is none other than a staffer poking around on P2P netowrks, participating in sharing in order to nab IP addresses off traders. Which of course is just as illegal as sharing pirate material for any other reason, most likely entrapment and possibly a breach of the privacy act (if an IP address can be considered personal data, which I do)

An IP Address is probably only considered private in the same manner as a telephone number.
You give it to someone (even via callerID) and it's theirs to share as they like.
