This is asking for the court to decide in their favor.

Asking to do what?

Be able to force ISPs to cut someone's service off without a court order, or be held liable for it.

ISPs are already doing whatever they want without court orders.

And the Authors guild is asking to be able to force the ISPs to do that even more under threat of legal action
