Stop with the fanboy BS, really. Then what is your problem? You are not named in the lawsuit so your information is not affected and either way, ISPs are LEGALLY required to keep logs for cases like this. They will not hand over information to just anyone without a lawful request but if it comes to it, they CANNOT evade a court order.

I thought we'd established that there isn't a legal requirement to keep the logs, but that an ISP basically can't function without them. I may have missed something.

I'm trying to dig up some info as I thought there was something in the privacy laws about it. But also even if it's not in the law, you could make the argument, that if TSI didn't keep logs which then they would have to come back with "sorry, we don't have IP subscriber data" the court could view it as trying to evade the court order.

Not in a million years. Nobody can be compelled to do something that a law does not compel you to do. If a judge would tried it, the order would be appealed and striken so fast your head would spin and the judge would be admonished.

Point taken so presumably they could do that.. but they've already identified subscribers by sending out notices so can't go back now or questions would be raised.

There is no legal comeback from not having them. There is no "evasion" if they don't exist. But if you have them, and you delete them, you're up the creek without bug spray. You'll be eaten alive.

I'm studying case law on three other fronts and my brain will explode if I check these. Someone else can look. »www.canlii.org/en/ca/pcc/

Huh? How would they ID any customer if there are no logs? I'm saying your argument is right, if they claimed originally they had no logs at all, sent out no notice then they could argue that front. But they sent out notices indicating they have identified subscribers so they couldn't claim that now to the court.
