OMG! Least shocking news of the day—big entertainment and television corporation Viacom has been pressuring Google to turn over user data from their video site YouTube. And they're not asking nicely. Specifically, Viacom is looking for information to prove that there's substantial piracy and copyright infringements going down on the site (uh, duh) for a $1 billion lawsuit they've filed against Google—and they want names.

Before you start wigging out, here's the good news: today a New York court ruled that Google can hide the names and IP addresses of viewers who they will turn over information about to Viacom. Instead that information will only include data about what users do with the content they view. So for now, YouTube users don't have to expect any busts or fines a la Jammie Thomas, the woman who was slapped with nearly a quarter million in fines last year for pulling pirated songs off the Internet.

But seriously—after lawsuits like that were filed, and people fined—does anyone have an illusion of privacy on such user-shared content sites anymore?
