What really gets me is that Lowtax figured out all this liability legal stuff a decade ago by happy accident and trial and error. Why isn't some company paying him insane amounts of money to be their rain man idiot savant director of communications?

"dear giant internet conglomerate have you tried being too poor and too niche to avoid liability"

What steamrolled Craigslist, backpage, and Tumblr is marching inexorably toward Facebook and Youtube. The tiniest amount of liability and responsibility - capable of crushing giants into dust.

Sure. But media companies like Fox pushed hard for sesta fosta bc it could set a precedent for taking down services that host copyright violations, and Google was extremely against sesta fosta until some wording was changed that gives them a way out.

It looks like liability and safety but it's really just another backchannel massive corporations can use to enforce their profit margins with state-sanctioned force

According to the New York Times, Trump advisers Roger Stone and Sam Nunberg came up with the concept of the border wall sometime in 2014. Steve Bannon played a minor role as well.

The Times notes:

As Mr. Trump began exploring a presidential run in 2014, his political advisers landed on the idea of a border wall as a mnemonic device of sorts, a way to make sure their candidate — who hated reading from a script but loved boasting about himself and his talents as a builder — would remember to talk about getting tough on immigration, which was to be a signature issue in his nascent campaign.

“How do we get him to continue to talk about immigration?” Nunberg reportedly told Stone. “We’re going to get him to talk about he’s going to build a wall.”

“How serious is he about that?” Wallace asked. “Has the White House drafted an emergency border — a resolution that he could announce tomorrow we are declaring a national emergency, we are going to build a wall? Has he set a deadline for when his going to end talks and simply say I’m going to go off on my own and do it?”

“That’s a lot of questions,” Sanders complained.

“Three,” Wallace said
, adding, “It’s all the same question. How serious is he? Is he really prepared go off on his own and use money that was authorized for military construction and building wall instead?”
