I don't know what the court decided, but Shell's argument was the height of bald faced hypocrisy.
From EarthRights International:
Corporations claim they’re people when it suits them, to gain exemption from laws they don’t like, such as our campaign finance laws and food-labeling laws. They claim to have “free speech” rights just like people, trumping our democratically enacted public-interest laws.

It's not unlike superstitious primitives from a cargo cult…See More
