Hey, this is fun! I'll have my invisible Apple Watch find my invisible BMW right now!
Thank you for this. Immediately after the posting of the pictures went public, both Gawker and Jezebel (later removed) had links to the actual photos and rolled up a nice number of page views.
"And so, after naked images of female ... celebrities began being distributed online by thirsty bitcoin whores, one would think that if Reddit had any moral consistency in its leadership, it would ... instruct its moderators to scrub links to the images from its servers ..."
It's what happens when you live in a country where most political and labor decisions are made with the sole thought in mind of raising corporate profits.
Next time, can Jezebel please just spare me from declaring how great their BFF, Jen Law, is. A real BFF wouldn't post a link to her nude pictures in exchange for more than 300k page views.
Jezebel did a similar thing in the Ferguson case where it provided all the information to find the erroneously doxxed officer, but never mentioned his name.
The sentence should read:
Similar to when Jezebel posted the information to find the erroneously doxxed officer in the Ferguson case, Gawker blogs rely on the principle of plausible deniability to insulate them from criticism and the occasional reckless libel lawsuit. They try not to straight out post dubious content, so they basically link to…
Yeah, now that you mentioned it, I recall that that's the case.
Ha, good point. I did not know that, but then again, given that it's the US, it doesn't surprise me.
Basically, you can make most of these arguments about people who try to kill themselves off the Golden Gate Bridge, but fail, or mountaineers who get placed in danger while climbing high mountains. That person very easily could have killed himself and needless government resources, including the time and effort of…
To be fair, his conduct doesn't "cause" everyone's rates to go up. Insurance companies have a business model that has inherent risk in it, including the possibility that people are going to try to rip them off. Insurance companies are also tend to be publicly traded companies that are required to make ever increasing…
As usual in this country, if you start digging around, I'm sure you'll find that lobbyists for the insurance companies were instrumental in passing legislation that made insurance fraud such a severe crime. If we didn't put non-violent offenders away for eons, how could we possibly stay atop the list of countries with…
They also doxxed the wrong guy as the shooter and, far from being just unfortunate, that's reckless libel.
"Idiots On The Field tend to get away with a lot more overseas than they do here in the U.S. ..."
Mr. Stewart's training is in how to come in first in races that involve things with four wheels. His training was never in the field of "how to avoid people who are bobbing and weaving in the midst of oncoming traffic." To say that he was some kind of expert in avoiding moving people on a racetrack is ridiculous. You…
There's a legal principle called "comparative fault," where the victim can also do something that helped cause his or her demise. In fact, it's usually allocated on a percentage basis, so one party is x percent liable for the incident and the other party is y percent responsible. I agree with you that the poster is…
I'm guessing that there isn't in an event like this, but is there any chance that was a Stewart radio transmission to the pits after the initial spin out?
Are you ready for some beer ads?!?!?
