We're going to get Dick and Nool going apeshit. This isn't a weeb wars stream.

FUCK DICK HE IS TRYING TO KILL OUR SITE.

Nick is fucking dumb and wrong and Josh is completely right.

If § 230 ceases to exist, literally, this site gets obliterated the next day.

We're INSTANTLY GONE.

Josh knows this. These two idiots don't.

How much information is head really going to have outside of what Ty (or someone else who was present) relates to him?

Even if something absolutely hilarious happened (like the judge having to get called in and him coming down on Soye) there's only so much he could say about it. The more realistic case is that Ron got grilled and had a whole lot of nothing, which means that there's nothing to say beyond mocking Ron and doing a five minute rant about how they're screwed.

Better to wait until Monica is done and do one big deposition round-up and go through a transcript (though last night he made it sound like he was trying to get audio/video) when one becomes available.

Last night on stream he got something and was looking through it with a bit of a smirk and said he'd have to go through all of it and make sure everything was on the up and up and redacted. Don't think it had anything to do with the depositions.

230 should continue to exist; its protections should just be removed from any entity that censors.

"censor" being defined here as removing content that is legal or suspending posting ability from someone who posts legal (in the US) expression. I can see carving out an exception for stuff like spam though.

And here we get to the point where Nick and so on assume good faith on the part of the legislators and that they're not just suddenly going to change the rules.

FUCK YOU DICK. Unless you're literally able to host us, you don't know what the FUCK you're talking about.

I wonder what the fuck Nick will say when suddenly, Kiwi Farms ceases to exist just when he needs it.

fucking idiot.

For the record, whenever someone says Nick's only content is grifting off of Vic leaks: he's steady at 5k watchers one hour into Nick, Dick, and Errverlord Josh debating Internet law and crypto.

Pretty much, the chat was an absolute circus when I looked in. I decided to bail because I don't really enjoy Dick talking about things outside of his sphere, I could listen to Nick and Doug talk about pretty much anything and still enjoy it but I can't do that with some of his other guests.

Wrong thread.

Not true. In the event a court finds that a lawsuit was filed with the purpose of retaliating against a defendant for exercising First Amendment rights, the court "SHALL award to the moving party:

(1) court costs, reasonable attorney's fees, and other expenses incurred in defending against the legal action as justice and equity may require[.]"

That part isn't optional.

Also: "(2) sanctions against the party who brought the legal action as the court determines sufficient to deter the party who brought the legal action from bringing similar actions described in this chapter."

However, this isn't a one way thing. If the court finds a TCPA motion was filed for absolutely bullshit reasons:

"(b) If the court finds that a motion to dismiss filed under this chapter is frivolous or solely intended to delay, the court may award court costs and reasonable attorney's fees to the responding party."

Hmm.

The key term in there being "reasonable attorney's fees". Even if by some miracle they win a TCPA I doubt they are going to get awarded fees to pay three different law firms.

I've had this though inchoate before: people have certainly given Nick credit for boosting the Vic signal, but I'd almost argue that Nick is the reason the Vic thing remains popular - not the that Vic is why Nick is popular.

Nick is entertaining, regardless of any other factors.

I'll admit I'd never have started watching Nick if it wasn't for his coverage of Vic.

It's a symbiotic relationship, if anything. Nick energizes Vic's massive fanbase, and Nick, with his coverage of the law concerning Vic, keeps Vic afloat when everyone is trying to tear him down.

And, after people watch Nick for long enough, realized he's actually fun and educational to listen to on his own, non-Vic merits, and stick around.

Null is right about the Net Neutrality stuff.

People always seem to forget that taxpayer money financed the creation of Internet. That's what Gore was referring to. If you were around on the Internet before the WWW, you remember a time when it was against the "rules" to conduct commerce on, for example, a Usenet newsgroup.

IIRC it was around 1994 when the Internet was opened up to commerce, and that brought a boom of innovation, but it was all built on what the universities and military provided as a foundation. TCP/IP is like 50 years old.

No. There is actually a process for determining reasonable attorney fees and it isn't just jacking them up by hiring a bunch of lawyers. I'm not sure if they use it in Texas but quantum meruit is often used to describe it. Like every Latin
phase lawyers use, it means "I know Latin and you don't." In practice it means what the work was worth.

And that may actually be a a strategy, it's just a really bad, dumb one in this specific case.

And would the court be free to determine that the "reasonable" attorney fees would be, say, the attorney fees to actually file the TCPA motion, and leave MoRonica hanging for all the costs of their unnecessary discovery shenanigans? The TCPA is specifically intended to avoid costly discovery when a case is truly frivolous... how is spending $50K on unnecessary discovery somehow included in "reasonable attorney fees" when it's done for the specific purpose of racking up legal fees that you expect to shift off to the other party through the TCPA?

EDIT: Nick is starting to talk about Ron's deposition RIGHT THE FUCK NOW.
