Now if they try to forbid it because the users are violating copyright, the same argument the music industry is using, then I can see it holding up in court.
That is one direction I think they would take but also I can see them trying the indecency angle and child porn angle.

There's tons of ways they can go to win this one in America as well as encouraging other jurisdictions like Germany to join in.

We can only hope the laws that they come up with to hurt the service don't hurt us as well. It could easily happen. They could piggyback so many laws on this one it's not even funny.
