The claim from the judge is that the at least one of the copyright organizations are neutral and is a discussion club. If you specialize in a certain area of the law it is natural that you are a member of organizations to increase your knowledge.
I personally think that the evidence does not support that the organizations are neutral.
But all people have opinions and that does not mean that these opinions influence how they do their work. I it really the case that if a judge has opinions about death penalty or what is the correct punishment that he cannot participate in a case in for example the US?
