It should be noted, however, that failure to comply with 2257 requirements could result in civil claims based on unfair competition, as have been asserted in the lawsuit by Vivid Entertainment against Pornotube.com. See Vivid Entertainment LLC, supra.

so basically if they win, it will be easy for US webmasters to sue other US webmasters that aren't 2257 compliant.
This legal precendent would open a pandoras box.
Imagine all the big guys with a chest of legal fees going after the smaller fish for not being upto 2257 standards just to shut them down and kill up & comers..
More legal fees, more happy lawyers when this happens.
