Let’s shoot all the state employed prosecutors first. If we need to help the poor, let charities hire thief catchers. Few would bother to pay for this persecution.

You speak of the threat, not the sentencing, correct? What’s the likelihood he would get a max penalty instead of just a fee?
I also noticed Google argues “It’s akin to prosecuting mail service employees for hate speech letters sent in the post”. this is patently false. Mail service employees do not see the content of the messages and therefore could not possibly come to a decision on whether to deliver them.
The very reason Google is being prosecuted as a content provider instead of an ISP is because they are displaying the content, rather than just delivering it. Their analogy with mail shows that they don’t understand this rather obvious distinction, which seems very strange. Instead perhaps they could argue things like the rate/volume of upload means that within 24 hours is a very reasonable response time.

First thing we’ll do, let’s shoot all the lawyers.
