I do notice odd censorship though. At one point, they blurred the sign of a local CVS Pharmacy. I've seen other business signs and logos blurred as well. That seems counter-productive to me.
Likely being mistaken for license plates, which Google tries to blur.
I certainly wasn't intending to troll. And I wasn't trying to argue for or against the aritcle's position. All I was trying to say was that, from my reading of it, this case study lacked the nuance, backing of points with data, and honest questioning I've seen in others.
I usually enjoy these case studies, but this one seemed very biased. All of the decisions to be made and questions to consider seemed worded to only allow one direction of answer.
I had never heard of xHamster, and have no idea what their business model is, if any; maybe more background on that would have helped me understand where the article author is coming from.
TL;DR for the article: bad website, bad bad website
the President of the United States has total freedom to declassify anything on his own whims at any time. And these tweets sure looked like him doing exactly that.
Not by my reading. The tweets do not declassify, they are only statements about what Trump has done. And they are lies, but Trump lying in a tweet is legal and in fact usual. I (unfortunately) don't see how it has any bearing on the court cases at all.
One important point to remember is that a threat to arrest during a pandemic is a threat to expose the arrestee to illness or even an inadvertent death sentence.
I do note "Provided any law enforcement organization a feed of our customers' content transiting our network" does not include a feed of requests for customer content.
Because it went this route, the new law may as well have never been written, massaged, and put into effect.
Does that mean the legislators will be returning their industry campaign contributions?

I can't parse the title; can someone explain it?
Oh, is "Its" supposed to be "It's" (It Has)?

performative letter
My guess is the letter is just for additional publicity, and a phone call was made to try to regularize the situation.

How, if at all, does this differ from police lying to people?
confused
How are in game assets intellectual property? Doesn't seem to fit.
Re:
This is not a knee-jerk reaction. Organizers in Minneapolis have worked toward this for years, and I trust them, if not the council, to have plans.
news flash
Non-violent protests are routinely organized with some thought to op sec, e.g. using Signal for communications.
This is not news, and not a problem.

Happy next 50000, Mike!

But what about the structure, sequence and organization of the individual elements that are not independently protectable?

no effect?
"Cloudflare offering up its scan tool for everyone"
There is still a subtle distinction between "everyone" and "Cloudflare ustomers" :)
Re: tsth intentionally trolling?
I guess it wasn't a good joke.
But I am triggered that you misspelled me
Techdirt intentionally oblivious?
How can you seriously contend "Copying Is Not Theft" is not hate speech?
