[ hey johnny! long time no see. will you be at nordnog?
if so, i will press even harder to go.
or, if they wish to keep the phone analogy, it needs to be
made clear to the relevant court that the phone number is
analogous to the domain name, and the ip space is analogous
to the actual coding in the switches.
the question would seem to be one of who/how best to educate
the court. their issuing a tro when they are not sure makes
some sense.
