- airstrike 2y agoThe Supreme Court doesn't.
- garbagewoman 2y agoThe supreme court says a lot of things.
- airstrike 2y agoSo does the EFF, but they have no say in legal matters, so their opinion here is irrelevant, whereas the Supreme Court's opinion is final.
- Spivak 2y agoSure but even the supreme court disagrees with the supreme court. Treating their rulings as the best or canonical interpretation of a case doesn't make much sense. It's not like any interpretation is valid but there are plenty of valid ones.
- airstrike 2y agoBy definition, the Supreme Court's decision _is_ the canonical interpretation. Whether you disagree with the decision has no bearing on the matter. And of course it makes sense, because the legal system was created by the very laws it upholds. If you think it should be different, then you'll have to convince a lot of people to change a lot of laws and probably parts of the US constitution
- tivert 2y ago> Treating their rulings as the best or canonical interpretation of a case doesn't make much sense. It does, because the Supreme Court's ruling is the legally binding interpretation. The EFF are just some people with an non-legally binding opinions.
- airstrike 2y agoIt boggles the mind that this comment is being downvoted for literally stating facts. People really have their fingers in their ears with this topic.
- HDThoreaun 2y agoAnd what they say matters a whole lot more than what the eff says.
- cute_boi 2y agoJust because Supreme court said it doesn't mean they aren't heavily biased.
- monocularvision 2y agoWhat exactly do you mean here by using the term “biased”? In what way is the Supreme Court “biased”?
- Fidelix 2y agoYeah, and the EFF is in no way biased. at all.
