From A CNBC interveiw with Obama: https://www.cnbc.com/id/28545989
HARWOOD: Speaking of trying to avoid the dangers of the bubble, you still got one of these in your pocket?
Pres.-elect OBAMA: You know, I actually took it out as a consequence of this interview, but I'm still clinging to my BlackBerry. They're going to pry it out of my hands.
HARWOOD: Well, are you, in fact, going to overcome this idea as anachronistic that presidents can't use the most modern...
Pres.-elect OBAMA: Well, here's what I think I can get. I think I'm going to be able to get access to a computer somewhere. It may not be right in the Oval Office. The second thing I'm hoping to do is to see if there's someway that we can arrange for me to continue to have access to a BlackBerry. I know that...
I thought it was Seth Rich when it happened and still think it was Seth Rich.
You only needed to read the things he was writing in the months before he died to figure it out. He was talking about how he was really excited to start working with the Democratic party and thought he was going to be a force for positive change. Then how he began to become deeply disappointed after finding some shit out about the things the party was doing.
Then he goes dark for a while, the leaks happen and he turns up dead. Then Julian Assange offers a $25,000 reward for info on his killers.
The ICE wants him deported because he is a criminal who was convicted of "conspiracy to commit wire fraud and wire fraud" for his part in the theft of about half a million dollars from his company and served 3 years in prison for it. He was given a final order of removal in 2007, and has been dodging that through the legal system for 9 years.
It's not like this is some kind of baseless attack on him because of his beliefs, and it's not a new thing.
>assert Title I jurisdiction over internet traffic
On January 14, 2014, the DC Circuit Court determined in the case of Verizon Communications Inc. v. Federal Communications Commission, that The court vacated two parts of the FCC Open Internet Order 2010, determining that the FCC did not have the authority to impose these orders without classifying network providers as common carriers. Since the FCC had previously classified broadband providers as "information services" and not "telecommunications services," they could not be regulated as common carriers under Title II of the Communications Act of 1934. Therefore, the FCC Open Internet Order 2010 regulations, which could only be applied to common carriers, could not be applied to broadband providers.
According to the courts, there is no such thing as Title I jurisdiction over internet traffic. At least not that can be forced on the ISPs.
Net Neutrality Is important, but it's relatively minor when held up to concerns like "what do we do if NK launches a nuke at us", which is also under the purview of the executive branch.
I theory, but the FTC is much more restricted in what it can do. Especially if they have common carrier removed.
The whole reason that the courts made them use Title II on the ISPs was because they said that the government have no authority to regulate their internal business practices unless they are a common carrier.
This is especially weird considering that PUBG is not the first entrant to this category of games. They in fact rode in on the coat tails of the success of H1Z1 Battle Royal, taking a portion of H1Z1s player base when they released.

Online disinformation efforts?
After looking though the report it looks like they were just using bot accounts and advertising networks to promote news they liked.
I'm pretty sure if a corporation did this same thing it would be labeled a "promotional campaign" and no one would care.

Re:
Ya, that part is kind of massively important.
Better example
You're correct,
This is actually like an auto making suing another auto maker and winning because both vehicles adhered to federal automotive standards.
Bit one sided

Re: Re: Re: Hate is hate
So if I criticized those other governments for their actions, would it be considered hate speech?
That seems to be what this is about. People are criticizing the actions of the Israeli government, and being told that makes them anti-semitic nazis.
I don't have anything against Jews, but you don't get a free pass on your actions because you have declared yourself a religious state.

Re: Exercise your rights? Oh that's going to cost you
If so, this may be a wake up call to the government's of the world which gets them to stop mindlessly cooperating with US extradition efforts.
