There's many reasons this wouldn't be a good move and probably why they haven't done it before. Net cafés for instance usually use the same IP for all the PCs, and a lot of DB business is done with people who use net cafés. Home networks as well will generally use the same IP for the PCs using it, even some ISPs work with a VPN or NAT system that make all the users share the same IP. It would be a definate shot in the foot if they did this as multiple connections from the same IP does not mean that someone is multiclienting.

The above is exactly why the information in this original post is FALSE.
Also... how many college kids play online games? ...Millions... how many colleges have their students on a network? ...All of them... and how many of those networks use one IP address/ ghost IP address/ VPN/ etc...? ...All of them... and how much business does this jeopordize? ...For every 1 million college students, 7.99 million dollars (at least)... and how many companies will actively jeopordize 8 million dollars or more? ....None of them...
ok so that answers that question...
