  1. Using this logic, I guess we should sue the phone company when somebody uses a phone to help with committing a crime, because the phone company wasn’t monitoring all of the calls? A common carrier has certain protections and that is what an Internet service provider should be.

    I don’t know how this got past all of the lower courts and why the supreme court had to mess with this.
