If the couple wants legal status designating that previously unrelated individuals should henceforth be treated as a legally related group, then government must be involved. Being legally allowed a relatives-only visit to a hospitalized parter, for example; or legal standing in probate, for another; or legal responsibility for a child's actions -- is the partner legally a "parent" or just someone who happens to live in the same house?. Such legal acknowledgement does not have to be called "marriage," nor does it have to be conflated with any religious practice.
No, it's very different. Banks don't get to put "suspicious" money into their own pockets. You don't have to "keep after" banks "long enough" -- you only have to say "lawyer" because banks don't get away with ignoring legal challenges. Banks can only tell you "because we said so" until law enforcement, jurists, or banking regulators get involved.
In other words the messy task of... governing that over which you have no jurisdiction. Welcome to the Interstate Commerce Clause. And that's just the intra-US transactions; good luck legislating California state sales taxes on amazon.uk.
Make it part of the contract that the cloud provider is adequately insured to cover the costs of data redemption followed by wiping the cloud servers in the event of going belly up. Include a provision for periodically proving to the client that the insurance is in force. Not a perfect solution, but it's probably the best you're going to get. The cloud provider could use the phrase "bonded and insured" as part of their own marketing. Then it becomes standard business practice to only entrust sensitive data to "bonded and insured" providers.
Well, I suppose I should remove tongue from cheek and give an actual answer.
Taken in isolation, there's no reason to put one before the other.
But it's not isolated. I've seen every episode of Top Gear UK and I've read some 50 or so of Clarkson's editorials and I've read up on some of the juicier incidents in his life; so thus am very well acquainted with his somewhat strained relationship with the truth. And with his inability to admit when he's been caught in a flat-out lie. That may make me biased, but I'm neither the judge nor the jury; I'm a bystander opining on the outcome.
Add to that Tesla's position:
1) They waited two years before filing suit.
2) They claim to have actual data.
3) They're not asking for an exorbitant monetary award; the money they are asking for is less than the cost of the car.
These things suggest to me that Tesla's suit is not a knee-jerk reaction, but one which was rationally reasoned. This sways my opinion over to the notion that they may actually have a solid case.
You can dismiss all of this as hearsay and personal opinion, because it is. The whole point of litigation is to attempt to determine the truth, which process is exactly what Tesla has just started. I'm betting on them.
Until those who make the laws pass one that says Jews can't control the nation's things, e.g. its money supply. In a nation with divided powers, one had better care who holds the other powers.
The duck was male and so was the other duck with Bert in the bedroom and besides it's none of your business what gay couple they swapped partners with anyways.
You missed the "born in Kenya" craziness.
Your point renders most of the birthers' arguments irrelevant.
Mine renders all of them irrelevant.
Obama's mother in 1961 was fully qualified under 1961 US statutes to give birth to a US citizen regardless of place and regardless of the father's citizenship. Everything else is irrelevant.
WTF?
Yes, the extra functionality would have been a good thing, except all of my Office 2003 users were stuck with non-opening documents.
That's going backwards, not forwards!
So yes, it was in fact "such a bad thing."
Microsoft finally agreed with that point of view; that's why they eventually put out a patch for it.

But commenting about it on Slashdot does make him a dork.
. . . after we've seen all there is to see of the best comic-book blockbusters ever made . . .
What is this "best" of which you speak?

It's OK. As long as the state didn't do anything wrong they have nothing to worry about.

Just another example of Internet lawlessness that the State of California will have to save us from.....

They're called "The Hollywood Hills", you insensitive clod!
No, it was so someone could publish a book with no camels on the cover so we could all then call it the 0-Camel Book.
Reminds me of The Gervais Principal.

He just told trolls "Come and get it!", how is that maximizing value?
It isn't.
The strategy was smart; announcing it to the world was stupid.

The Holiday "station-store" at the Mall of America doesn't actually have gasoline, and I'm tired of it showing up when I'm searching for gas stations.
Does this mean I can actually fix it with some faint hope that the fix will actually stay fixed?
Well, I suppose I should remove tongue from cheek and give an actual answer.

Tesla has data, the BBC has Clarkson.
He was the pilot?
Resort owners and drug dealers. Will this make spring break safer or more dangerous? Either way, don't use the water as mixer.....

Actually, it will be 6014 years old next October 23rd, per Archbishop Ussher and disallowing a year 0. Be precise, man -- this is science!

You're still making the mistake of thinking that citizenship is only based on location of birth.
Obama's mother was a US citizen. End of story.

Neither the ancient Hebrews nor modern Christians were/are willing to admit that their revealed truth was plagiarized from another religion.
Nor would either group accept that their revealed truth was just a rehash of some pre-Biblical Hebrew cultural mythos.
Rather an odd way to stick up for Biblical literalism.
