This reminds me of the end of the 1995 movie "The Net" where Sandra=20
Bullock captures criminals with an enhanced version of traceroute (or=20
an enhanced version of the Intertubes) that showed some very dodgy IP=20
addresses, and an enhanced version of whois that shows you a picture of=20
the person using a particular IP address.
