    It’s an asshole perspective that the IA dearly needs to listen to. Don’t poke a bear when you have so much to lose. Doesn’t matter if you’re “in the right”. The history books are littered with the corpses of righteous people.

    Let the EFF handle the quixotic battles, it’s what they’re best at.

      “No one should stand up for new rights. Don’t rock the boat bro.”

      Your mindset is the road to a dictatorship.

      What does the Mafia do? Show up, “Wow you got a lot of valuable things here Be a shame if someone broke them. Best listen to us.”

      The Mafia leverages potential of damage to existing value to extract cooperation.

      I see very little difference here between the Mafia and the plaintiff.

        “Societies with rule of law are dictatorships. How leaders are selected and the existence of fundamental Constitutional rights is not a factor.”

        How you like them strawmen?
