ArsTechnica is lame to act like this is a Utah-specific thing. This is a federal case brought in a federal court that happens to be based in Utah.


If you'd read the article, you'd know that a federal case brought in a federal court in New York came out the other way, so the impact of this decision is geographically-limited until the Supreme Court weighs in (oral arguments coming in April).


I did read the article and I understand that the decision affects all of the 10th circuit and that other courts ruled differently. It still has nothing to do with Utah specifically. It's a federal district court that is operates within Utah, but is otherwise wholly separate from Utah's interests or government. The articles says things like "Utah is hoping to slow their progess". This is blatantly misleading.
