I am certain that this ruling will be appealed, and we will hopefully see this case before the Supreme Court (assuming they have the time and desire to hear it.. if they don't, then this ruling will stand). Only then will we really be able to speak with the certainty you display.
When you say "Ultimately, no website can force a user..." I wonder if you are actually considering the use of force there? A police officer or other agent with a firearm raiding the home or place of business of someone with a court order in hand is generally quite effective at compelling behavior, and that is what Oracle is aiming for. Whether there are technical means to make it easy or practical isn't at issue.
