Forcing them to face the public fury is a great start. Once there is a public rulemaking, the TSA must consider all the information presented to them. If they fail to, they can be hauled back into court.
The core of EPIC's arguments was always the rulemaking. They didn't do a good job presenting any other aspect of the case, largely because they filed before the TSA implemented the NoS as primary. The cases in the district courts now have a much better chance at getting scope & grope to be declared unconstitutional.
