Well I never expected that! :eek:
Who would have thought that one tiny insignificant state of America can not restrict the freedom of the rest of the planet...!
It's anarchy I tell you, anarchy!!

I really hope all the operators are sending out letters to MG asking for the gates to be open again!

I wouldn't count on it. The decision they took may have been prompted by the Kentucky issue, but definitely not solely based on this issue.

I would, however, like to be wrong in this instance :D

How good would that be! But I suspect it won't happen. There's also the chance of an appeal, and I noted the decision was a 2-1 majority decision, not unanimous. Part of the argument handed down by one of the judges was that IP addresses do not constitute a "device" or "machine", but also saying that Kentucky's own laws had stopped short of drawing this conclusion, hence the decision was easier. What's to say they couldn't just re-draft the laws and try again?
