Exaktly, the Betamax all over again. If the court upholds the law, TPB will go free. If the court do not uphold the law (sic), much worse things will come down the road when makers of general tools can be convicted of contribution to copyright infringiment. It is huge. Makers of most electronic goods around the world will be affected and maybe forced to close down if they refuse to pay the masters of MPAA and friends. Very few people have understood this, and certainly not the lawyers involved in this political trial, they think it is about filesharing.

In this case it is not a fallacy, since it does not follow that logic. The government do not run our telcos anymore like they once did. It is illegal for the operator the owner of the hardware, what the government agency thinks is irrelevant - today. The company would not do anything illegal especially if it is only associated with a cost and no income. The point is that it is illegal for the owner of the hardware, the bill would turn that upside doown, ordering them to do what is illegal today. If the FRA would go to them today, they would get an healthy "up yours" as an answer. But not after this bill..
