Here's a fantastic video from an actual lawyer who talks about this case.

He implies that Bowser isn't necessarily innocent, but he is probably the fall guy for a much larger operation.

Except, of course, that he is innocent in the sense that what he did shouldn't have been a crime to begin with.

What he did was nothing more than facilitate console owners' property right to modify their devices.

I never stated my opinion on the matter. Just restating what a lawyer is saying about the ruling and why it went the way it did.
