What I find most interesting here is the relationship between extremely old laws and evolution in technology.
The court seemed to suggest that using old laws to tackle a new issue wasn't appropriate:
> "If the Nevada Legislature wanted to bar projecting images onto a wall, it could do so"
If that outlook takes hold more broadly, then there would be a whole swathe of potential issues relating to technology, communications and the internet. Government would need to come up with a lot of new law.
