This is exactly what's supposed to happen; the DoJ brought the dispute to the judicial branch and asked a court to resolve it, as opposed to arresting people or seizing control of the assets. They didn't seek the breakup of the company or the arrest or ruin of its officers, they asked the court to require compliance with what they believed to be a valid request in the form of the NSL. The court sided with the defendant, and the DoJ is going to have to abide by that unless they win at appeal.

This is exactly why we have a judicial branch to begin with. You should be celebrating.
