ptz , in Lawsuit argues Call of Duty helped cause the Uvalde school shooting
@ptz@dubvee.org avatar

Are we ever going to stop blaming video games?

ThePantser , in Activision is awarded $14.5 million in a Call of Duty cheating lawsuit
@ThePantser@lemmy.world avatar

So instead of making a better product that can't be cheated with these companies tie up our courts with silly lawsuits. Next they are gonna try to get laws written that outlaws cheating.

pearsaltchocolatebar , in Lawsuit against American Airlines claims Black passengers were asked to deboard flight

Sounds like a few people are about to get fired.

kylie_kraft , in Jury convicts Trump of falsifying business records in hush-money scheme

So now we run the very real risk of a felonious president who pardons himself on Day 1.

What a functional country we have ourselves.

IDew , in Google accused of secretly tracking drivers with disabilities

Not in this case, since the state law supersedes any terms of service.

the_doktor , in Google accused of secretly tracking drivers with disabilities

Google tracks EVERYONE. Same with Apple and any other company that has access to you via electronic devices How is this news? We really need strict llegislation to end this anti-privacy nightmare we are in.

Because in this case, it is illegal.

the_doktor ,

Should be illegal in any case. It violates your privacy and freedom to be tracked and only because big businesses have normalized this bullshit do you think it's okay except for marginalized cases.

You don't have to convince me. Convince your politicians that are paid by big business.

hondacivic , in Law student ‘unfairly disciplined’ after reporting data breach blunder
@hondacivic@lem.sabross.xyz avatar

No good deed goes unpunished

ohlaph , in Trump Threatens To Sue ProPublica For Reporting On Payouts To Witnesses In His Various Cases

Do it. I want to see the discovery.

Addv4 , in Rock climber sentenced to life in prison for Yosemite sexual assaults

At least 5 known sexual assault claims (3 not pursued because not on federal land), at least 9 restraining orders, and hundreds of threatening calls to his victims (while in police custody). Seems like he was the Weinstein of rock climbing, as a lot of other climbers essentially covered for him. Not gonna lie, was originally gonna say a life sentence was a bit much, but...

willya , in Poppi Soda Sued Over Gut Health Claims
@willya@lemmyf.uk avatar

Stuff’s such a rip off.

kurikai , in Rebecca Grossman gets 15 years to life in prison for killing two young boys with her car in Los Angeles

Not long enough

uberdroog , in Hunter Biden found guilty on all three charges in federal gun case
@uberdroog@lemmy.world avatar

Cool, we are done then. What will Republicants pitch about now?

Lemminary , in Hunter Biden found guilty on all three charges in federal gun case

So he's being convicted for breaking gun laws and Republicans are touting this as a major case? Aren't they supposed to be against these things? Fucking hilarious.

Lemminary , in US banana giant ordered to pay $38m to families of Colombian men killed by death squads

Oh no, a whopping $38m they made in less than a year. What will they do.

Tar_alcaran , in Elon Musk drops lawsuit against OpenAI

Musk is straightforwardly alleging that OpenAI breached a contract that does not exist. It is simply not a thing! The complaint makes reference to a “Founding Agreement,” but no such Founding Agreement is attached as an exhibit, and the breach of contract claim admits that the “Founding Agreement” is basically a vibe everyone caught in some emails.

That's hilarious. At least his lawyer talked some sense into him at the last second
