It IS illegal if he does it under oath.
But getting convictions for it isn't easy. See the baseball player who clearly flat out lied right to congress's face that he didn't do steroids.
Silly Berenerd,
You have to fuck over and rip off a LOT of little people to get away with it.
Oh and don't make the mistake of ripping off the wealthy and powerful like poor old Bernie Madoff did, because then you'll actually have to do jail time.
But rip off tons of little people? Funnel a bunch of drug money for the cartels? No problem!
Random screening has also become "use it as an excuse to search the hotties and the people who look like they won't give you trouble". I recall the TSA got in trouble for that years ago.
And "elimination of counter-productive protectionist state laws" is never going to be agreed by the Dems.Citation needed. Anti-competition protectionist measures are not a part of the Democratic agenda, or actively demanded by their base. Also, a majority of state legislatures are currently controlled by the GOP, especially in heavily rural states with the biggest ISP problem. Even the ultra-corrupt West Virginia cited in the story is currently controlled by the GOP
And to do shopping for a number of products like books, because the Internet put all non-Internet competitors out of business.
Immigration Court is also really fucked up. The 'judges' aren't real judges, they're employees of the DOJ and can be fired for not working fast enough. Google the Jon Oliver segment on Immigration court. At one point he played the entirety of one of their hearings on a person's case, which lasted for only a minute. And yet despite those sham court proceedings they still have a massive backup because obviously we need a lot more immigration courts and 'judges'. Oh and did I mention Immigration courts think it's perfectly fine to have young children (I think as young as 3? I might be off on the number) represent themselves without a lawyer?
Stuff like this are why I think it's inevitable that the pendulum is going to swing hard against IP holders in the future.
Stuff like this is much more visible to the public.
The thing is some people, especially those with white skin, can change their skin color through tanning and sun burns much easier.
Me and my brother grew up thinking for a while that our grandfather was black because of what a dark tan he always had year round. From what my mother said it built up over time because of the lack of sun screen protection products that worked back in his days.
Posted without any proof of said claims.
Maybe because even you know you'll be torn to shreds if you do for linking to easily debunked stuff.
If you've really been reading techdirt off and on over the years, you'll have seen many stories about the ISP's claims of how bad net neutrality is getting debunked (such as their claims that it hurt ISP infrastructure investment, despite the lack of any spending difference before Wheeler's rule change and after it, and despite the ISP's admitting to their shareholders that it's all bunk).
My first thought when I read the title was that the US Army was worried about getting sued for infringement by the NFL if this went through (for violating non-existent rights on their trademark) simply because of their long history of it. But then I realized the title said NHL and not NFL.
So, seeing as you're almost certainly a bot, do we all want to place bets on how much money your owner is making per post?
I'm going to say $0.25.
But we've done it over 7 billion times. How else do you think babies are made?
I have the same feeling whenever I see someone come in with a handgun on their belt.
What are the odds that you're even a real person?
I bet there's a 9 in 10 chance that you're just a troll bot made by some wealthy corporation/etc. advocating against net neutrality.
This article backs up the $2 billion loss in the last year, not quarter. But it implies that they only have over $3 billion in debt.
In April of 2016, an officer claimed he was drugged by a Subway employee who supposedly spiked his soda as he went through the drive-thru.
Wait, wait, wait, there's Subways that have a drive-thru?
That right there tells me it's a fake accusation. I've never seen a single subway with a drive-thru.
Use an ad blocker, it makes those things go away.
The only ads I see on Youtube are the first 30 seconds after I started my web browser. But I can easily just close Youtube and come back a few minutes later.
Or more like Pai is lying his ass off to take off the heat, but he'll still let it go through anyway.
Just like he did for the change to submit comments to the FCC, which now requires over $200, even as he claimed just the day before it was voted on that he wouldn't do it.
Clearly they need much harsher penalties until it becomes too financially devastating to commit constant fraud.
Re: Re: One Way Street
Better yet, there should be a special prosecutor for indicting and prosecuting police officers.
We have special prosecutors for investigating and prosecuting members of the President's administration because of clear conflicts of interest (the DOJ is a part of the President's administration, and led by their appointees), we should do the same for bringing bad police officers and departments to justice.
Prosecutors often have clear conflicts of interest prosecuting cops because they need the cops testimony in plenty of other cases they're prosecuting to secure a conviction. A great way to lose their testimony/cooperation in those cases is to prosecute the cops. Even if the cop still cooperates with you, it provides a field day for the defense by damaging the cop's credibility, especially if the cop was caught lying to cover up their crimes.
