Too late for this week, but this story is appalling: Police pressured a suspect to confess to a murder that never happened. In fact, he confessed, but then they found his dad (who they thought he murdered) alive and well, and DIDN'T TELL HIM. Sued the city, got a settlement, but the officers involved were promoted. Why are policy allowed to lie during interrogations anyhow? Is that permitted in other countries? https://www.cnn.com/2024/09/05/us/fontana-pressured-murder-confession/index.html

2024-09-05 13:16:46 +0000 UTCI already "hearted" Roan Kattouw's post, but I want to echo hearing about the indictment of TENET Media (the RT backed "Tennessee-based" media company supporting Tim Pool, Lauren Southern et. al.).

2024-09-04 21:17:19 +0000 UTCNot necessarily rapid and in honor of the NFL season starting this week, but I would like to hear the status of the NFL Sunday ticket antitrust lawsuit. The jury awarded damages for over 4 billion dollars and it was reported that a judge voided the award due to flawed methodology. Is this case over is has it been remanded to be retried without the flawed methodology. It seems bizarre that a single judge can just void an entire anti-trust lawsuit. The reporting on this seems to focus on the voiding but not about next steps.

2024-09-04 21:17:16 +0000 UTCAs a person who supports both root cause mitigation _and_ ineffective gun control, today's shooting has me wondering: what can states actually do about guns in light of Bruen? Are there any interesting strategies being tested anywhere?

2024-09-04 21:13:34 +0000 UTCNot a rapid response, but I would love to hear a detailed breakdown of Tim Walz’s policies and successful track record in Minnesota with such a slim majority in the legislature.

2024-09-04 21:11:46 +0000 UTCI'm curious to hear Matt's thoughts about Telegram's CEO being arrested and likely charged in France. The theory of the case presented to the court seems out of alignment with the spirit of the statutes under which he was arrested. The statutes seem intended to bolster encryption products in the marketplace. Prior to the statutes being passed, companies would have trouble avoiding national security laws. They are now required to register their source code with the French government. Under the theory that the government can be assured the products are not providing a back door to their adversaries. With an additional benefit to French companies who trust their government's review of the software. Telegram provides encryption products to their users but as far as I can tell, they don't specifically market their product in France, particularly not to the French government, so it's not particularly clear that registration of the software source code would be required. If the prosecution's theory of Telegram's responsibilities hold up then it seems like to offer software for free on the Internet requires having legal advice in all countries one might visit in perpetuity unless the source code is made freely available as well. Am I misunderstanding the law here? I know this isn't a French law podcast but this seems like the kind of policy settled through the WTO et al and enshrined in laws of member countries so maybe there's US law that intersects here.
