Sure - but if you are going to write blog posts / articles - and all you can say is based on the lawyers I talked to apple is committing child porn felonies, that is just unacceptable.
At least HN should flag these and get these taken down. Over and over the legal analysis is either trash or it's clear the article author didn't understand something (so how can lawyer give good advice?).
These conversations become so uninteresting when people take these extreme type positions. Apple's brand is destroyed - apple is committing child porn felonies.
I would have rather just had a link to the apple technical paper and a discussion personally vs the over the top random article feed with all sorts of misunderstandings.
And in contract law there are LOTS of legal articles online - with folks name on them! They are useful! I read them and enjoy them. Can we ask for that here where it matters maybe more?
- sandworm101 5y ago>> there are LOTS of legal articles online - with folks name on them Articles are not legal advice. They are opinions on the law applicable generally, rather than fact-based advice to specific clients. Saying whether apple is doing something illegal or not in this case, with a lawyer's name stamped on that opinion, is very different.
