The funniest of all is that most of the identity leaks happened thanks to NFO files, which are useless except for boasting (the name of the group being usually on filenames already).

Some of these people are serving jail time because their nicks were in a useless text file next to the pirated movies presenting them as proud members of a group (and hopefully with some ascii art).

This is not a mistake, it's pure stupidity...
