JF,

I googled using your keywords and found this description of events:
http://dietrolldie.com/2013/06/20/what-to-do-when-notified-of-possible-online-copyright-infringement/

It says the copyright trolls do one of two things:
1. They email your ISP who emails you and tells you to stop doing it, or, 
2. The subphoena the ISP for your name and address.

They mentioned the Bellwether trial, so, googling for it, I found this:

Here are five takeaways from that trial:
