@georgetakei meadows is all-in on moving his case to federal court, where he can attempt to claim qualified immunity. he's arguing that his federal job is to do whatever the president wants, so that anything he does is by definition part of his job. I hope it doesn't work, but even if it does, he still has to go to federal court and say that he did these things because trump wanted him to. #ianal

#IANAL but I can read and this is clear as daylight in the 14th Amendment.

When is a lawyer not your legal counsel?

@GottaLaff

That would be me being, extremely-not-a-lawyer and assuming that if someone is found guilty of breaking a law in America (as had been suggested on various website headlines), that it meant they'd been convicted.

Live and learn, I guess.

@igd_news What I'm getting from this: The reason defendants are on the hook is for not responding to a summons, so a default judgement was issued on shady standards for notification of summons service.

I mean, it should work both ways, right? (#IANAL): Given that standard, I should be able to serve a huge corporation in a newspaper article then a collect default judgement when they fail to respond.

@benjamin @jp

If you're just doing it to present information in a different way and not storing it, I don't personally see a problem.

Unrelated question: Does anyone else still giggle at the acronym used to indicate you are not currently practicing law?

absolutely incredible and (#IANAL but) wildly indefensible work here by the Epic Games legal team

Updated the US criminal justice process map with Trump's two major sets of federal charges -- (a) the violation of US sensitive document laws, and (b) tampering with the 2020 election. If I'm missing any, please let me know. #IANAL #USpolitics

あとは設定ファイルはプログラムやリソースの一部であるか否かみたいな観点もあるかもしれないけど、その辺りはマジで #IANAL なのでワイにはわからん

これは (当然ながら) #IANAL #TINLA なんだけど、雑に言えば「誰が書いてもそうなる」という創作性がない記述については著作権が認められないみたいな感じのことがあったはずで (少なくとも日本はたぶんそう)、設定ファイルについても構文が決まっていて書くべき値もほとんど必然的に決まる事例が多いので、創作性はおそらく認められない事例が多かろうと思う。海外は知らんけど。

@rholais 现在的歌曲版权系统都很发达，一般有版权的音乐都会进一个声音指纹库，大平台和这个库对接，如果版权音乐传油管很快就被识别下架或消音；Spotify似乎也是；苹果肯定也接了这个库不过没有enforce因为除了他们独家的节目其他节目的音频传送是走的原网站，所以他们的法律责任比较轻，大概只有版权方DMCA才会手工下架。虽然没见过，不过我猜和反盗版片类似，肯定也有DMCA troll会有程序扫描播客节目自动去发DMCA notice。不过一个音乐类播客放了几百上千支歌大概不需要有自动机制就会被人发现吧。

获得授权如果是常见的歌一般每个国家都有几个大的版权代理可以在线查询付费授权的，价格应该也是因国而异，美国几十到上百刀都有，中国可能便宜些。小众的音乐可能需要用更原始的办法直接联系版权人，价格也更随机。

Presumably "bad faith" here means not practicing due diligence. #IANAL #ChatGPT

@mariusor Sadly, the lines are very fuzzy.

Take the chance, if you want. Me? I stay away from them entirely and advise clients to do the same.

@TonyJWells @goodthinking @pluralistic the great thing about toilets is if you can imagine something is one, you can make it one. #ianal

@Cassandra yeah he is Big Government personified it’s so weird but who would sue whom here and for what? #IANAL

So, I'm assuming that #ianal refers to something other than enjoying taking it in the butt... Or is there a meme I'm missing out on?
