Agreed. #moderation is a sticky wicket. And the degree to which users are (or aren't) the publisher in #law, in different jurisdictions is important for #liability in #socialMedia #publishing. One wonders if there might be merit in forming a small #charity to host an instance, to act as a sort of limited liability entity that protects the individual host from unlimited liability.

It is common knowledge that public-held corporations (i.e. on stock market) are profit-driven.
But what I recently learnt from my US colleagues is that in #USA, employees of a public-held corporation are required by law to work in the interest of the stock-holders (i.e. maximise profit/dividends), and are also directly liable to them.
This is not so in Europe (I know at least for 🇸🇮, 🇩🇪 , 🇪🇸 , 🇫🇷 ) BTW, so that was a surprise!

Seeking input from #lawfedi folks on how #nevada and #delaware compare in terms of D&O liability and whether there's been enough change on the Delaware end recently to cause reorganizations in Nevada. All opinions/theories welcome.
Also, anyone know how to access some sort of list of Nevada corporations or see which have reincorporated there (without paying a fortune through the state's portal)? Is anyone else tracking data on this?

In case anyone here is into stocks: is there a #FinFedi? Is this a thing? Are tickers a thing? Is anyone here into finance? It seems very culturally at odds, but anyhoo, if you happen to own $CHPT, you need to read this piece.

Welp, I suppose it was inevitable!
The first 2.0 suit was filed today in Delaware Court of Chancery—
it was filed under seal against Twitter by John Barnett formerly of Chroma Labs. The complaint will be made public in five business days.
The suit if for declaratory relief and specific performance of a restricted stock agreement, which imma assume was not paid as promised in the merger agreement, RSA, and proxy.

Pardon me while I make a straight-forward legal post to try to lure some of the hangers-on over here from the other place. :ablobcatmeltwave_rev:
Fourteen new follow-on cases in the ten-years-running Cellular Telephone litigation cases were filed today and assigned to Vice Chancellor Laster.
The new cases allegedly arise from, or relate to, post-trial findings made by VCL in the original set of cases.

For some, reinventing the wheel is an innovative strategy. Jogging in place, pushing pencils & shuffling papers may be the way forward for them
