Could it possibly work the same way asset forfeiture works? Sue the property, not the owner. Extradite the server, not the owner?

He may be factually incorrect, but what is "horrible" about it? If he were right, wouldn't it be wrong for cities to offload their homeless problem on SF? If that were going on, what would be so "horrible" about s
