I don't know if they succeeded in prevented the links to DeCSS (and I think they're
wrong if they
did) but their rationale in the case was that DeCSS was software intended to
facilitate crime (theft
of copyrighted material). This wasn't the case with the Ticketmaster link.
Interestingly enough, theft of copyrighted material *is* the case with our photos.
