How will we get Bach to make more music if we don't protect his copywrite! It is the only way he will make money! How is he to live without the people paying to play his music!
Personally, I feel he should be found guilty and chained in a pool filled with piranha and give him a bloody nose. If he survives for the 20 minute bath, he is obviously innocent.
I would also like phone number spoofing to be a little more difficult. You would think that phone companies could tell when a number is spoofed, but alas...
Someone from 111-111-1111 wants me to save on my credit card payments.
they know that Facebook messenger is not really a legal way of legally contacting someone, right? I mean, we are in the digital age and all, and I am all for not using snail mail, but that is kind of taking class to Donald Trump lows.
Where do I go to recommend that anyone found guilty of anti-slapp laws should always be punished financially but add in the target of the suit gets to SLAP them as hard as they can.
"ICE insists the US government is the real victim here. The victims of ICE's scam university aren't actually victims, according to ICE."
If by Government, they mean tax payers, then they are correct. They wasted all that money to weed out about 5% of those that responded. Of the reported 393,573 F-1 recipients that would mean %.00002 of the people here on student visa's were found to be here criminally. GREAT JOB GUYS!!! E FOR EFFORT THERE
I think the first responder...should have been more clear in what they meant as ICE was created in 2003 while the program that is being discussed started in 2015.
All this talk about Facebook fact checking everything posted there and has anyone thought that maybe the politicians need to fact check themselves before putting up ads? We wont go into the whole leaking information or disinformation and how this administration HATES that, so they say, unless it helps them.
So, let me get this straight, you have been "following for years" and you realize now that that there are political issues pointed out here? Have you not read anything posted over at least the last 8 years? Mike does not seem to have an opinion in which he feels one party is better than the other. He points to facts. Facts that can be verified. He did it against Obama and Trump. How commentators respond is not in Mike's control. He posts his blog post and we all debate it or in some cases make fun of the situation. You can't talk about whistle-blowing or the FCC with out it being political.
Are you sure you really have not just stumbled on to this blog today, figured out how to post, then posted because you feel the discussion is against someone you support? We do see your test message as the first to respond with "Test"
Facebook has rules you need to abide by which also are mitigated by government laws. Is this child safe? No? it goes! Is this discussing illegal activities? Yes? Gone. Is this promoting hate with graphic images and other requirements that the user agreed to when they made this account? Yes? Banned.
Colleges, especially public schools, have the same responsibilities.The issue here is, a very broad rule, that can cover 2 people talking to one another, and not locking all of the people up having a general conversation, as their rule applies, means a bias. These students were not doing anything that anyone can do on public land. They did nothing to the point of blocking passage, interrupting the normal functions of the school. They were arrested because someone disagreed with a sign they had and felt that was a legit reason to arrest them.
What the college did was the equivalent of a white lady calling the cops because a black family next door was having a family BBQ. No laws were being broken, the family were just different.
There I was, right, proposing to the love of my life where we met at the book store on campus and we get arrested because we didn't get approval first. Now they wont talk to me because this went on their permanent record and can no longer join the police force after college!
"I earned my money by convincing a multinational prince company to give me money so they did not lose their porn empire. I now need someone to help me protect my millions. I will give you a small cut of 30% if you just give me your name, address, and telephone number and your bank details, I will make sure monies are transferred!"

Are the Mexicans paying for this too? They paid for the wall, right? RIGHT?
Trump's lack of knowing how trade or anything business works, other than filing for bankruptcy, is astounding. People had to of seen this coming.
Well, like the virus...
If we share the information, we get more reports of injustice! We need to slow down the sharing of information!

I think at this point we should start pointing out the not-so-shady parts of the US government. The list would be shorter.
Well... (as Berenerd)
What do you expect from the Administration that feel facts are fake news and Alternative facts are truth?

Who knows, this might become a new 419 scam.
