For any of the more legally erudite commenters here: what are the chances that something like this survives court scrutiny? Something like this seems to run afoul of free speech vis a vis the fair use doctrine as I understand it [1] so how large of a threat is something like this long term outside of it being able to cause an immense amount of pain and corporatist bludgeoning in the meantime?
