business. Who are you going to sue? Could you impound all 35
computers? And who's to say the libelous posting didn't come from a
visitor that was allowed to plug into the companies internet
connection while he/she was there for a meeting?

in at the library to use the computer.... then the prosecutor of a
libel, defamation or bias crime or claim would have the name and
address of the offender and could proceed with any remedy at law.)

catches you passing the light it is like a parking ticket because
they can't ascertain who was driving the car.
