Apple AirTunes private key extracted
I wonder if people will get their IPs subpoenaed for looking at that link, as was the case with the Sony keys?

I'm pretty sure Sony's goal there was to gather information to support their argument that a California court is the right venue and generally to intimidate geohot. Not to sue anyone who merely viewed the page.

Meh, they can sue me. I don't think they'll get very far.

Sony was using IPs to establish jurisdiction because they have a fairly weak case. AFAIK, you can't be sued for reading/looking at something.
