That was a surprise today. I haven't checked on the reaction from my friends at the EFF yet but I'm sure they have to be estactic that Due Process wins in this. This should shoot down the RIAA from getting Federal Powers of Exemption that they were seeking too.

It is Innocent until proven Guilty, not the other way around.

It's only standing in Washington D.C., apparently this decision does not help those outside the District of Columbia.
Yeah, but ISPs nationwide will grow some cajones and stand up to the RIAA.
