From the interview:
> The other thing that’s built into this law and the surrounding policies […] they’ve changed two legal principles. It’s not ‘innocent before being proven guilty,’ it’s ‘preponderance of evidence,’ and it’s not intent, it’s outcome. Those transformations are so far reaching, it’s almost unimaginable.
From a legal standpoint changing the law in such a way that well-intended social behaviour ("Excuse me miss, did you hand in your term paper on [topic] yet?", said the professor to the female student) would become punishable by law in case the observer of that action was offended is pretty draconian.
