IsoHunt's attorney, Ira Rothken, believes this is a significant ruling and went on to say:
Our view is that it would be difficult if not impossible to be able to trace any direct infringement to the users of the Isohunt's site in a manner that would hold Isohunt responsible for the infringing conduct. I think the judge's order will hopefully demonstrate to the court that Isohunt, besides lacking knowledge of direct infringement, can't possibly be held liable for users conduct, especially since any such conduct occurs after they leave the site.
