Going after people that are compliant now but weren?t compliant 3 months ago will not stand up in court.

And yes, I think they are going after people that are producing, displaying, and distributing CP. Once they are done taking down the real problems they may start to inspect compliant companies. Which is fine. They have a huge amount of CP being produced that they want to stop. Just look at Yahoo?s CP case. Or newsgroups, p2p networks, and the people like the NY guy that was producing CP.
