I'm not sure I see any connection. The recent ruling by the Supreme Court was based on their interpretation of the Constitution and Freedom Of Speech.

I don't' think that stealing content is in any way linked to Freedom Of Speech.

Or do you just mean that their last decision was so dumb that they are likely to make another stupid decision?
The campaign donations ruling means unlimited amounts of money to politicians. Who has more more money, Google or individual artists? So which way is any legislation (if any) going to tilt--towards Google or towards the artists? Do the math.
