During the evidentiary hearing, the Court asked the State’s expert, Mr. Allen, whether he believed Snapchat met Act 689’s definition of a regulated “social media company.” He responded in the affirmative, explaining that Snapchat’s “primary purpose” matched Act 689’s definition of a “social media company” (provided it was true that Snapchat also met the Act’s profitability requirements). When the Court asked the same question to the State’s attorney later on in the hearing, he gave a contrary answer—which illustrates the ambiguous nature of key terms in Act 689. The State’s attorney disagreed with Mr. Allen—his own witness—and said the State’s official position was that Snapchat was not subject to regulation because of its “primary purpose.”

Something has got to be done about this recent flood of vaguely worded (selectively enforced) bills.

Makes me think of the subway stage in Mortal Kombat 9.

You cherry-picked one word out of their comment and discarded the rest without addressing it at all.

I remember when there was a real fear the elections would go to an insurrectionist and a snake oil salesman. Phew.

Ah yes only the most important issues of our time being tackled by Republican politicians these days.

...what was the question again? chuckles

Well Seymour you are an odd fellow, but I must say... You give a good orgasm.

Forty. Freaking. One. Why has this country not been in an uproar since the first one? Why did we wait until this many? This is the first I've heard about it. Doesn't surprise me at all, but I had no idea this was happening.

Forty one!!

A painful thought hit me earlier today. If he develops dementia then he will die in blissful ignorance of everything he's done.

I kind of hope he doesn't retire and goes out in an explosion of bodily fluid on live TV. What a show that would be.

So 6 victims and no deaths over 4 months. Less crazy for sure but could have been better.

Every time I don't use GPS I regret it.

Lol I believed them the first time but their continued insistence is starting to feel suspicious.

I'm sorry, there was a sniper killing people for 3 years?? I'm sure the victims got no help from police whatsoever being the 1980s. I can't imagine feeling so helpless.

A person driven to override their self-preservation is an insanely dangerous thing.

Shitpost was supposed to be the "anything goes" meme community, and a bunch of yahoots took that as "Oh we can post lgbtq hate memes here".

"Anything goes" is such a terrible idea in the modern internet, you're always going to get checked for trying it lol.

This sounds like something John Oliver would play at the end of an episode and I'm about it.

Could you clarify who was posting? Shitpost wasn't tolerating Nazis?

I guess I can see how that would go poorly for a meme community. That's where they like to congregate.

Always have to link this comic when generational wealth comes up.

Personally I know that I'm one of the ones who lucked out. My family wasn't rich but we didn't struggle. I'd like that to be the minimum experience for everybody.

24: The Movie

Watch every second of Jack Bauer's day. Probably skip the first 8 hours, it's just a long sleep scene.
