Reddit and Film Companies Clash in Appeals Court Over Sharing Users’ IP Addresses
- Reddit has been operating against a group of filmmakers over the past two years in order to protect the privacy of its users.
- The movie companies argue that they are not likely to pursue these people in a legal court but wish to use their comments as evidence on-going piracy liability lawsuits against Frontier Communications and other internet providers.
- Reddit sees the demands as invasive, with the firm trying to further protect its users, maintaining anonymity.
- The movie companies persisted and took these cases to the Ninth Circuit Court of Appeals to ask it to compel Reddit to comply, feeling that the IP addresses would be key evidence to show that Frontier is liable for its subscribers’ copyright infringements.
- This court decision was refused on a number of occasions for various reasons.
- Last month, Reddit reported to the opening brief, requesting the Court of Appeals to affirm that the DMCA subpoena should be quashed.
- This conclusion can be reached based on the lower court’s finding that the value of the requested information fails to justify the burden.
- The anonymous speech concerned with the subpoena is protected by the First Amendment.
- EFF warns that Judge Donato’s remark shouldn’t trump existing jurisprudence.
- The Court of Appeals should follow the reasoning of the magistrate judge’s analysis regarding anonymous speech.

Enad Global 7 shuts down Toadman and lays off staff at Piranha Games, potentially affecting PlanetSide 2
- Swedish company Enad Global 7 has closed developer Toadman Interactive and laid off 69 staff, as well as imposed a round of layoffs at Piranha Games, potentially affecting PlanetSide 2.
- The Toadman team reportedly had responsibility for the development of PlanetSide 2 since last year, having purchased its IP from Daybreak Games, which continued as publisher.
- PlanetSide 2 boasts a 12-year-old MMOFPS that underwent development and server mergers, as well as a planned new assault mode.
- Swedish firm EG7 says in its statement that the decision is down to the continued industry challenges and the studio’s inability to secure new work-for-hire contracts at a necessary pace.
- EG7 CEO Ji-Ham lays blame on MechWarrior 5: Clans for failing to attract new audiences, meaning 38 Piranha Games employees lost their jobs.
- The press release suggests the completion of 2025 features, thanks to the contracted employees who will continue to work on the Daybreak and Cold Iron projects.
- Neither announcement gives details on what these layoffs will mean for the future of PS2 or MWO.
- MWO continues to release planned DLC for MW5: Clans, while PS2 has made no official announcements relating to this piece of news.
- Users are worried about both games and PS2 players have been left dismayed by the lack of traction surrounding the game.
- We reached out to EG7 for further comment.
