Yea, but all that's going to do is give the IP of the household, anybody in the house could be looking at whatever

This will give them a concrete identity tie in to a specific person

That defence might help if you find yourself standing in front of a jury... but porn is legal so that's never going to happen.

But for blackmail? Presumption of innocence won't help you in the slightest.
