NOT A LAWYER NOT A LAWYER NOT A LAWYER NOT A LAWYER

I've just read the entire decision - and it seems to me that while this is certainly good news as far as the secondary producer issue is concerned - and also for TGPs, etc............

It also seems to me that:
1. The entire convoluted set of requirements for 2257 record-keeping, including keeping a full depiction of every single photo and video clip, CAN be enforced immediately.
2. The requirement that mom-and-pops put their home address on their sites (or else have to work out of a business office) CAN be enforced immediately.
3. The requirement that every URL on which a depiction is shown must be catalogued separately CAN be enforced immediately.

Additionally, I saw only allusions to the DOJ's statements, but no concrete clarification on issues such as foreign IDs and what can be construed as material requiring 2257 documentation.

So, while there's SOME good news in there, it appears to me that as of tomorrow, a lot of people are at a lot of risk from the bulk of the new 2257.

I hope some attorneys will have the information and insight to tell me I'm wrong
