Incorrect. Blackmail is the demanding of money or property from a person under the threat of revealing something about the person that they do not want revealed.
no. money, property, OR OTHER SERVICES (such as STFU and/or "do what i say or else").
So many kinds of wrong.
First, that's federal statute. This sort of thing would be prosecuted locally.
Second, the exact definition of extortion or blackmail vary by state.
Third, in general, blackmail is usually defined to be a type of extortion (unlawful coercion), where the revealing of embarrassing private information is threatened, rather than physical or financial harm. (and by that definition, what CNN is doing is blackmail).
By the way, IANAL, and you ANAL too.... but apparently my google-fu is stronger than yours.
Well, they did threaten violence against the media
I keep hearing about other shit this guy supposedly did, without any description other than of being "racist" or "trolling"...... which is basically a blanket accusation the MSM makes against/r/The_Donald as a whole.
And can someone tell me how the reporter claiming (paraphrasing) "He just called me and told me he agrees with my statement" should illicit anything other than a "LOL?!?!" from anyone who doesn't have blind faith in CNN's unquestionable integrity...?
Free speech is the freedom to speak your mind. It also means others have the freedom to hear your statements and decide how to view you. It doesn't give you the right to hide behind a freaking handle then cry fowl when people inevitably find out you are really an asshole.
The bill of rights does not give anyone any rights. The right to say whatever the fuck you want is a natural "god-given" right. The 1st amendment is a promise (often broken) by the federal government not to take away or limit that right.
Took me a while to find out what the fuck this story was even about. Some guy takes some WWE video of Trump, super-imposes the CNN logo over the face of the wrestler Trump is pummeling. Trump tweets it, and CNN gets all butthurt.
The guy who made the video was found, and he quickly deletes his account, and apologizes, saying he never intended it to promote violence against news organizations....... SAY WHAT?!
NO ONE WOULD THINK IT REPRESENTS THAT, except butthurt fake news jew-fag snowflakes. They're mad that their empire of lies is crumbling, so they threaten to dox some nobody if he doesn't apologize.
FUCK CNN, and I proudly post this without clicking the [_]Post Anonymously box.
She's fucking toxic. Read her blog post: TL;DR-- Aside from one instance of mild sexual harassment (and I call it "mild" because things were implied instead of said, and there weren't any threats, no touching, etc.), she's complaining about standard workplace bullshit.
Calling this "Bro" culture is asinine feminazi bullshit. I suspect she sucks at programming, but I don't feel like buying her book to find out. I know the UBER app AND website are a barely functioning SHITSHOW.
But they can be held legally responsible if they knowingly help criminals use a "security" front company to collect blackmail money and kidnapping ransoms.
....as opposed to all those legal, legitimate uses of crypto-currency.
I would care if Intel hadn't been resting on its laurels for the past 15 years or so.... not to mention charging premium prices for marginal upgrades. The only difference between Intel and a patent troll is a few billion dollars of outsourced R&D (which hasn't been very productive lately).
If you want to find more tech support scams at the top of google search results, all you have to do is search for "can't install X", where X is some common piece of software. This has been going on for YEARS. Google doesn't care, because it makes them ad money.
Not realistic. One of the big obvious problems all the businesses at Galt's Gultch have, is that they don't have customers. Ok, they have a few (the other residents), but that's not going to support business-as-we-know-it-today.
...And... THIS is one of the two elephants in the room Rand was trying so hard to ignore. This problem with Galt's utopia is the same problem we face in our real-world capitalistic society..... Tool-driven over-efficiency. Since the steam engine (or maybe even earlier) the amount of laborers who are needed to produce our collective total material demand is much less than those who need the produce of this labor. (throw out the 'useless eaters', and you'll have the same problem again with less workers and less consumers). We are up-efficiency-ing our way towards 100% unemployment.
The other elephant: The answer to "who is John Galt?" is "Nicola Tesla", and he didn't get fucked over by communism, he got fucked by capitalism.

Mow my lawn for a year for free, or I tell your wife you're cheating on her with a transexual midget prostitute. Totally legal?
No ^THIS^ is the new narrative. SPECIAL people and organizations are exempt from proving claims, and anyone who disagrees must prove their claim.
no. money, property, OR OTHER SERVICES (such as STFU and/or "do what i say or else").

No, that's hypocrisy.

So, If I use publicly available leaked Ashley Madison data to threaten to tell your wife you're having an affair...... that's perfectly legal?
You forgot the IANAL tag... because you definitely ANAL.
I think YOU need to read that article you linked. Clearly not what-a-bout-ism.
"What the fuck" is me looking at all the zero scores on non-troll posts here. Shills shilling HARD.
Do you seriously believe that narrative? Was a silly GIF of Trump beating up CNN an example of trolling?
I think you're a shill (and thank fuck this isn't the People's Democratic Republic of Redittstan, where the word "shill" gets me shadow-banned).

More to the point: Just because you're not paranoid doesn't mean they're not after you.
Misleading article title. "revert" != "reinstall"
And what percentage of Muslims believe that the Quran is the word of Allah? 100%?

Seconded. Millenials are whiney snow-flakes.... but us X-ers are pretty much a lost generation.
Wow. The G.N.A.A. sure has changed.
If you call having ideas stolen, and forgiving debts he knew would never get repaid "giving shit away", then sure. What a hippie.
