Condos are also generally a scam. Owning real estate but not the land under it is to become a victim of incredibly perverse economic motives.
Sounds like fraudulent conveyance.
What am I conflating? No one is required to go to Twitter. They are occasionally required to go near the town square, and they tolerate Nazis in their face even there. I don't see something particularly novel here.
Not really, your premise isn't always accurate. Prosecutors will sometimes force such order agreement to drop or plead charges, even when the 'victim' believes the perp is innocent and wants to be with them. There are…
The people seeking the restraining order are victims as well, sold a lie by the justice system and lawyers. Almost anything bad a restraining order seeker is trying to prevent is already illegal. Meanwhile loads of…
Before Twitter the nazis would go to the town square of Jew filled towns and march. Americans have been dealing with this for ages and found it legally tolerable.
Restraining orders convey dubious benefits and arguably produce more harm than good.
It's the same on HN. If you say something controversial with a conclusion people dislike but debatable it will be disproven then downvoted. If the undesirable comment can be greyed out or the writer discredited they'll…
Caroline let it fall up
Basically every free person in the US can get a 26,000 lb truck or a semi auto rifle in under an hour. Germany has taken the other approach and implemented policies to make their country closer to a prison with all kind…
Unless you have hard requirements the visa is worked around easy enough. If you don't work you stay off the radar in most countries. If you are flexible some countries accept criminal reports from your local…
True or not he could have created a pretty strong argument the investors purposefully selected a guy set up with all the moral hazards to run off the rails and make them cash while frontrunning a casino. Frame it as a…
At her age with world as your oyster it would be tough. At 30,40+ already locked into a narrowly defined routine of toddlers screaming at you 24/7 because of some variation of you selected the wrong color cup, and your…
The reason floating crypto isn't viable as a domestic currency is it's a taxable capital gains/loss event every transaction, and not directly useful in paying those taxes. A recordkeeping nightmare, intentionally…

The ironic consequence of this is eventually if you want to use big tech for messaging privacy you'll be forced to basically pick one under the jurisdiction of an enemy non-extradition state like Russia or China. Sure…
Fgc-9 jams more frequently than a Glock. The barrel and ballistics were found to be near that of a Glock at least at lower round counts. Functionally it is a 9mm pistol which is what most law enforcement carry in my…
I fought in a US-allied foreign militia against ISIS . So yes.

They don't need to sell the database, just the video that builds the database. Or give it away for free and magically number go up in some bank account in Cyprus or Hong Kong.
Mass surveillance played out privately means every plated cop car can be tracked, every noted confidential informant and every detective, tax stasi, etc can be traced. This is already becoming the case on networked…
I'm reminded of ceausescu. Everyone agreed, up until they suddenly didn't and he and his wife didn't even seem to get it until they were lined up and shot. I think it takes both agreement and desperation for that kind…
Yes this seems variable based on point of entry. I had (have?) a flagged passport for awhile and I never got the oh shit face from CBP until they scanned my passport.
I'm of the opposite opinion,that recording is a liberty and the right to mass record and identify people is a healthy sign of private free speech rights. I feel banning it would be dystopic. Where I disagree is the use…
Rights are 'god given.' IMO. > Although it's a good thing that a good deal of Americans have plenty of guns to defend themselves (unlike us, who reside outside of the US) Getting a gun is trivial about anywhere, btw,…
