I won't argue with the article, it was the first result that showed up in search, but the consequences are the same. SCOTUS refused to hear the case, so now the lower court's ruling stands.

And while it doesn't directly ban mass protesting, it does that effectively. If you as an organizer are financially responsible for every single person that attends your protest, invited or not, it's a death sentence to mass protesting.

You REALLY need to read Sotomayor opinion. Your takeaway isn’t accurate at all.
