The COPIED Act is back, and it's still hot garbage. It dictates the design of every tech from spell check to Instagram filters AND gives every thin-skinned politician, celeb, and pundit a "don't parody me!" protection spell for everything they publish. commerce.senate.gov/services/files…


This is fascist talk.

If a judge tried to tell a general how to conduct a military operation, that would be illegal. If a judge tried to command the attorney general in how to use her discretion as a prosecutor, that's also illegal. Judges aren't allowed to control the executive's legitimate power.

Archive team, would you kindly do what you exactly know to do.


Thanks to everyone for sticking through the Internet Archive's recovery process. While not everything is back by any means, it is back enough that additional repairs will come across the next full weeks. To reach me in the future, refer to this account's pinned tweet.
