I was looking at (3) "...or other place of exhibition or entertainment." But still: lots of head-turning and squinting, so may not apply.

That would likely depend heavily on whether the BP is calling for black nation separatism.

Depending on how you turn your head and squint, Title II of the Civil Rights Act (assuming we can interpret Facebook as a public accommodation engaging in interstate commerce). ... though it's unclear whether it's more of a privat

... and yet, child pornography possession and distribution is illegal. Do we think Chomsky would find this unacceptable?

If we're limiting our discussion to US law and mores, then at least in the context of banning African-American content, there's specific federal law they'd be tripping over. That same law has not been (and probably should not

Company towns were a bizarre (and, arguably, pathological) special case in American history.

I agree with you. Apologies; I was unclear. Scenario in my head: actor (a) spreads hate speech, actor (b) goes and kills someone named as the hated party by (a). Unless (a) directly incited (b) (via the boundary test you cited), (a) isn&#x2

I think we're about to watch us have it both ways.

Without delving too deeply, because I don't want to engender any negative emotions: do you take the people who openly advocate genocide against you seriously? If you do and it doesn't cause you to experience any negative emotions,

With respect, putting a bad idea in quotation marks doesn't make it a good idea. Mencken was extremely intelligent, but applied over-broadly, the concept embodied in this quote implies we should defend even murderers against the oppres

I strongly suspect neither 4chan nor 8chan are going anywhere anytime soon.

IIUC, it becomes discerned by US law if someone acts on violent rhetoric. Then, the violent rhetoric can be used as evidence that the actions were part of a hate crime.

I don't see why this would lead to an S230 repeal if banning nudity doesn't.

If we're talking a vendor actually altering their offers, it's in their best interest to do so generally. They don't want a civil lawsuit for false advertising to get to discovery where they'd be compelled to answer ques

If I'm concerned about content being changed in the era of dynamic external-server emails? Sure will.

With respect, "anything that benefits corporations harms me" is a weird attitude. AMP in email could, hypothetically, allow me to hit the "checkin to my flight" button for a Southwest flight directly from my confirmation

AMP gates the JavaScript it allows and requires asynchronous evaluation. 3rd party JS is also allowed, but it has to be in a sandboxed iframe which, in a browser at least, would guard some of the user's state from exfiltration attacks

Yes. The advantages of HTML in an email are well-documented in the TC article and the Google announcement. I would make use of that, personally.

It looks like they're leveraging the safety aspect of AMP here. IIUC, the subset of HTML behavior AMP enables is generally considered to be "safe." If that property can hold, AMP-enabled email can allow for the benefits of li

Sorry, how does AMP reach into my client machine and delete my screenshots?

Or, based on the evidence... ... Microsoft and Yahoo think it's a good idea and want to support it. There's no particular reason email needs to sit around in the gutter while the rest of the web gets more multimedia and more perfo

So no, you were not there. You have sources you trust more than the official reports, reason to believe those reports are bogus based on those sources, and you're using your beliefs about German process in a German autopsy to evaluate

He died six hours later. You're really playing fast and loose with documented facts in this discussion. Were you there?

Well, no. A murder didn't used to be something extraordinary. Especially not in Germany---with respect, we are still talking about the country that committed genocide as state policy in the '40s. Germany's murder rate has rem
