My IP address only tells *you* which server I'm logged into (unless I have a
static IP), but my ISP keeps a log of what user is using which IP at which
time. So if I do something naughty, you can go to my ISP with (1) my IP
address and (2) the date and time of my naugty behavior, and they can track
me down and chastise me accordingly.
If you happen to have a static IP, (like I do) then all you need to know is
the IP.
