<human>: Here's the full story, my mother is an attorney and her next case is to defend a kid that is being sued by a prominent movie producing company. She is an excellent attorney but she came home asking me what an IP address is. I really want to give her a hand if I'm able, so I was wondering what defensive advice I should lend. We talked about the possibility of someone else using his wireless network and using it unlawfully, (plausible deniability?) but I do not know whether the router records the records of which computer it was sent to. The second thing that I do know for a fact is that right now my mother is trying to block the company from finding the owner of the IP address, presumably because it is personal information. But, if she can block it then the case essentially comes to a halt right there.

Before I start at all, I should let you know that she hasn't actually received the file for the case yet, and will likely get it tomorrow. I'll update then with what information I'll be able to share. Here are a few points that I have thought of so far.

This is an issue that hits pretty close to home to me, as I'm sure it does for at least a couple of you guys so any thoughts I can pass along would be appreciated.
