This is old news (see https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=14323265 https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=14323265). It also wasn't newsworthy when it happened. There's nothing specific to the GPL really implicated here. All the court ruled was, essentially, that you can't just take someone's copyrighted code and use it without permission. It would have been pretty shocking if any other result were reached at that stage.
