Wouldn't you have to additionally prove that facebook had some legal duty to prevent harm? Otherwise you can't claim that it's facebook's fault, rather than the parents or the state.

The US doesn't, as far as I'm aware, have any encoded right to one's personal data. Furthermore, copyright in the US does not extend to databases, such as a list of records. So there isn't a clear legal regime under whic

Am I wrong that in that article magma appears to do better? Particularly in the last two (red-blind and grayscale), it seems like viridis looks the same for large parts of the scale, while magma retains its distinction.

It's an odd article. The basic thesis is "use pgo instead", which is reasonable enough. It starts with a long diversion through edge cases of the attributes, none of which seemed particularly impactful in practice. Perhaps he
