New York Times columnist Paul Krugman is appearing to be having technical difficulties as he acknowledged Wednesday on Twitter that his IP address had been "compromised" and used to "download child pornography."

"Well, I’m on the phone with my computer security service, and as I understand it someone compromised my IP address and is using it to download child pornography," Krugman wrote in the tweet. "I might just be a random target. But this could be an attempt to Qanon me. It’s an ugly world out there."

Qanon is a reference to the group of conspiracy theorists who in recent years spread incriminating myths against many high-profile Democrats on social media.

I'm not sure. Being a bit of a fan of the Crime Channel I seem to recall that police can use IP addresses to identify Internet activity. However I'm far from certain that that's what I've seen. I'm sure that some geek here on FR can confirm,or refute,your belief.

Oh, sure.
Everyone is a pedo these days.

Since a couple years ago everyone we dislike has suddenly become a pedophile.

It’s trendy.

And they dig secret tunnels too, and eat up Haitian kids and shoot up Adrenochromes, yup.

Your ISP keeps a log of who is assigned to which IP at any given point in time.

The Feds see an IP address doing something bad and they look up which ISP is assigned to that IP range, then they issue a subpoena to the ISP to reveal the name attached to that IP at that time.

Wasn’t this the first scenario Anthony Weiner put out there when his dick pix got exposed?
