Supreme Court and Corporations

Big Business did will this term. Kelo, certainly, was a boon to any business looking to expand or open new offices, as they don’t need to be limited to ‘available’ areas.

Today, the court allowed cable companies to refuse to share their networks with smaller companies, and allowed the suing of people who operate file sharing services.

Update:

Lots of reading to do. It's being reported now that file sharing services can be sued if they encourage the sharing of illegal materials - which seems to be an affirmative act requirement to me.
