The author of the article makes a whole bucket of inferences which are taken out of context, or are just-plain-wrong. Anyone with a 12th grade education can read the front matter and establish the foolish gerrymandering on the part of the author. Perhaps he should stick to "Theoretical Physics."
While this may (or may not be... time will tell... ianal, etc...) be true there are ISPs *AND* common carriers being sued as co-defendants in Federal District court *right now.* And for those same cases the motions to unglue to actions/defendants have been denied.
"Wrong?" Who's an expert in the field who did not get to such a state by employment?... I can understand saying it's "not require" -- But "Wrong." takes it to a new level of douchebaggery.
In order to qualify as a "volunteer" for this service you need to be an employed member of the business community relevant to the topic. So-- No, Homeless Bill, and/or Sergi the Special Needs Bus Attendant will not qualify for the program.... *sigh*
Thought crime ought not be prosecuted. At all. Ever. The fact that "we" can have a collective discussion about this AT ALL IN THE FIRST place-- granting some remote semblance of tenability to the argument for the enforcement of thoughtcrime-- means we have lost the game. We fail.
In high school, I didn't learn a damn thing from my favorite teachers. If I could have replaced that famous picture of Nguyen getting shot in the face with my Math teacher I would have done so... BUT... I still use inverse operands every chance I get. Go figure.
I'm a card carrying, gun shooting, cigarette smoking anti-liberal. I read Slashdot at least once a day, and do not feel that "Slashdot" has an agenda. Posters and contributors may, and that should be an easy thing to use your noodle to differentiate... Unless you believe everything you read.
Seeing the result of poor education is an easy task. It's even easy to identify poor teachers by merit and/or performance... The difficulty comes in establishing universal standards that will do that by a set of static rules. Of course there are the pandemic issues with unions and so on. My spouse is a teacher, and several friends I graduated with are in education, and the story (at least in Colorado) is the same: The Union only steps in for members of the herd that are to be culled. In more... sane... states (our state is the lowest in Higher Education funding by several orders of magnitude) your mileage may vary.

Yeah, it does. But I think my point was that it's not as dire as the teeming masses of commenters suggest it to be.
Streissand effect, etc.
