I'd love for the title of this post to be accurate, but it's not. Many court rulings are available only in sliced tree format for a modest copying fee from a clerk behind a glass window. Sorry.

Free Law Project does have some state courts.

The Administrative Office of the US Courts and the Federal Judicial Center collect and publish some statistics, but they're pretty basic. For example, they collect "case type" as a single field with a single value. Most cases have more than one kind of claim, so this is incredibly under-inclusive. Also there aren't codes for lots of kinds of cases.

States are a grab bag but generally statistics poor.

The copyright lawyer in me is irritated by the "(C) Om Malik" legend on the photo of a slide. Yes, photographers can get copyrights in the original elements of their photos, but this is just a picture of a someone else's slide from where he was sitting.

No.

There's also no privacy policy. Oops.

I'm paraphrasing a bit, but here's your translation: "Yes, we confirm this is a misogynistic party hosted by assholes. We are upset that people are upset about it, so we're blaming them instead of apologizing properly."

Perhaps you missed the intentionally vague part of the criminal complaint against Ross Ulbricht of Silk Road fame. The FBI managed to get a foreign country to seize servers for it. How much due process do you think was involved in that unnamed foreign country? Abandoning the US isn't the solution to your problems. Fixing the law is, and you have a better chance of doing that in the US than elsewhere.

Maybe you forgot to read the part about the drafts and suggestions.

Bitcoin has a wave? Really?

Nope, there are often sentence enhancements when there are multiple crimes involved or if the defendant has prior convictions. Very common.
