Misleading headline. This appears to be a district court decision, not an appeal court decision. The first four words are "A US district court" and the very end is about leave to appeal being granted by an appellate court - but the appeal hasn't been heard yet.

That fundamentally leaves the material illegal, since you couldn't possess it without either producing it, or having somebody distribute it to you.
