I don't think this has anything to do with pre-crime. I do think there have been cases of it though... consider drone strikes being used on people who were profiled as "potential trouble-makers" (to quote the FBI's old Counter Intelligence Program memo).
That's an even worse example, when and where did they do that?
In this case, the judge seems to be considering it illegal to ADVERTISE… which is basically pre-crime.
Well any time the U.S. has performed a "pre-emptive" strike they are doing so with the same mindset as pre-crime. They want to attacker an attacker before they get a chance to attack. They seem to think it's a more honorable excuse for killing people than simply being the aggressor.
Edit: Also, I don't agree... "it wasn’t intended to police what rental hosts upload to the website".
