Direct link to Judge Alsup's order: https://www.bloomberglaw.com/public/desktop/document/Bartzet...

Name should sound familiar to those who follow tech law; he presided over Oracle v Google, along with Anthony Levandowski's criminal case for stealing Waymo tech for Uber.

As someone who has had a passing interest in most of these cases, I've actually come to like Alsup and am impressed by his technical understanding.

His orders and opinions are, imo, a success story of the US judicial system. I think this is true even if you disagree with them

He actually does understand most of what he is ruling on which is a welcome surprise. Not just legal jargon but also the technical spirit of what is at stake.
