If the FBI fears that the precedent set is more likely to weaken the All Writs Act than strengthen it, and they're just backing out to avoid loosing access to one of their toys (see the cases dropped rather than admit the existence/use of stingray devices)... Is there any way Apple can continue...
The Google car never actually changed lanes, the bus was trying to go around it while in the same lane. And to your point, if I t-bone a car while I'm on the green light, and they're on the red, I can almost guarantee (depending on local laws) that they will be held responsible so long as I did...

I don't get the prank pizza call either; it's not as if the recipient is on the hook for the pizza. Best case scenario is a minor annoyance to a corporate chain, but more likely you've (depending on the size of the order) just wiped out the days profits for the pizzeria, and worst case royally...

To use your own argument: There is a difference in moral scope between copying someones test answers and receiving credit for their work as well, and erasing their name and writing in yours so they get a zero for not handing in the test. How big a difference there is is up to you, but you cant...
"That cost, in addition to the existing expected loss of income, puts Sega on track to drop company profits from about $462 million to $243 million."
Is that worded correctly? We are not talking total sales before costs or something?
'Crap, we made less then half a billion in profit this...
Besides what has already been posted about determining jurisdiction rather then mounting a defense, most people are confusing ignorance of law with ignorance of fact. Claiming that you didn't know that poisoning someone is illegal will not save you; claiming that you did not know that somebody...
