In their original letter, Zillow's first demand was that Kate Wagner confirm that she has "stopped, and will not in the future, access or otherwise use the Zillow Site or Images," which she has now done.
Even in the worst case scenario, the internet was going to keep Wagner's original celebrated body of work available.
I dislike the idea that Zillow's legal goons can now guarantee Zillow's sellers that their photos won't be subject to mockery by McMansion Hell.

That would have acted as a very strong deterrent to speech.
