Our article on the First Amendment and what it means for free speech online, sheds light on what is and what is not guaranteed by the First Amendment in relation to online freedom of speech, file sharing, and anonymity online.
The internet as we know it is nearly 30 years old. Sure, the web is a bit more complicated — and more intricately connected — than it was 30 years ago, but it’s no less of a modern Wild West today than it was in the 90s (although you may need to dig deep into the darknet to experience the real gun-slinging). The freedoms and anonymity we enjoy online are, however, constantly under scrutiny, by both governments and businesses alike.
Comment from Torii Bottomley of Massachusetts Healthy Workplace Advocates:
My wish is that this informative, helpful, hopeful video finds it way into the hearts and minds of: those TARGETS who are suffering; WORKPLACE BULLIES so that they may consider ending their malevolent behaviors that cause life-altering injuries to skilled, ethical workers, their colleagues and their families; and LEGISLATORS to move them to pass anti-workplace bullying bills. Imagine HEALTHY WORKPLACES in America
A similar video project is in the works for New York.
Dear New York Legislators, I hope your holiday season is going well, and all your families are doing well also.
Today, I write you as the close of the years is coming upon us. In a few weeks you will be thinking about your New Year’s Resolutions and what you can do personally to improve yourself, your families and your communities. Today, I am offering you all one New Year’s Resolution that maybe you can achieve together, and that is to help pass the “Healthy Workplace Bill” and set a National Precedence on Human Rights and Human Dignity.
From the July 16 Anderson Cooper CNN 360 show: Criminal defense attorney Mark Geragos, who was not part of Zimmerman’s legal team, said “race determines everything in the criminal justice system.” “Nobody thinks of themselves as a racist, and I’m not accusing anybody of being a racist. What I’m saying is race is the prism through which people see things,” Geragos said.
Got a Gripe, Hunter?
