This isn't about an APT hacking a server. This is about speech which does not rise to the level of a crime under the 1st Amendment. If we are to take your argument for what it is saying, the 1st Amendment does not apply to say Mexicans living in the U.S.
- davesque 9y agoI really don't see what's so hard to understand about this. The elections in the United States should be carried out by people who have the country's best interests in mind. Is it a stretch to imagine that Russian trolls don't have the country's best interests in mind? There are laws all over the world (not just in the US) that govern the ways that communications and advertisements involving an election must take place. Just because that technically goes against a naive definition of free speech doesn't mean anything. And, despite your best efforts to frame me as a racist, I didn't say anything about Mexicans and wouldn't have any problem with the 1st amendment applying to them assuming other legal questions don't come into play.
