We have no control over how they choose to use that information.

With that said, there's little that we can do as a blogging network to curb someone's behavior.

You'll need to get in touch with your local law enforcement about this.

I started here and put in yet another complaint.
Ive already done so and do believe the other person that was being targeted did tonight as well. I simply wanted WP tos regarding posting, tracking and disseminating IPs of commentators and posters.
Thanks.

Harassment and stalking are law enforcement issues, not software issues. If you're serious, take it to law enforcement.

To save money ISP place hundreds of us in the same IP block.

Also is it legal for these WordPress blog administrators to share this information with others? I ask because I have proof of admissions that 2 WP blog admins are doing just that. I can not find this information anywhere in the TOS
