Who knew about this before last weeks ruling?

I did, but then I follow this stuff. AVN did several articles about it over the past few months.

I think there was a vague perception (hope?) that the proposed rules - that would make Hollywood have to do laborious 2257 recordkeeping over their simulated sex scenes - was so ridiculous that the thing would never pass, and if it did, the MPAA would foot the bill to get it overturned.

The only part that is news to me is that the MPAA actually managed to get an exemption carved out for the big Hollywood studios, leaving the XXX community to bear the sole brunt of the 2257 re-write.

Ditto.

The first post about it on this board was in March of '06
