Just another layer to their trolling. I doubt they would get much money from MPAA/RIAA since I'd be surprised if those groups didn't have similar and more encompassing databases already. The point about making you acknowledge you downloaded the data is simply a framing of "Just because we have this IP that matches these files doesn't mean you actually downloaded them even if you currently share that IP; but we're only going to comply to take-down requests of your personal data, so if you think an arbitrary IP represents your own personal data, that's your mistake."

- wisty 15y agoIt might be a joke. It might be a serious attempt to screw you, disguised as a joke. It's like some movie character who tells you not to do something, then pushes you to do it anyway, either to teach you a lesson or because they are actually out to get you. I think it's just a joke, though.
