If fair use is cut down...

It's not a case of cutting down fair use. It's a case 9f enforcing current fair use limits.

Just in case, there is confusion here: Obviously there is no past precedent on exactly the new circumstances, but that does not put new technologies outside the law. EG the freedom of speech and the press apply to the internet, even though there is no printing press involved.
