Lack of money and resources. "Telecom-backed" pockets are deep. Pro net neutrality pockets are not as deep.

Lack of ethics. Telecom-backed groups do whatever it takes to profit off communication. Pro net neutrality groups are probably less willing to participate in robo calling the elderly.

Yeah the article mentioned all the North Korean medical paper work showed Otto went into the Hospital already in a coma the day after he was sentenced. Furthermore, the article suggest he was well taken care of the entire time while in his coma (i.e., no bedsores, healthy coma weight, healthy skin etc.). And it said the original brain scans showed equal distribution of brain damage on both signs (i.e., he died from lack of oxygen rather than blows to the head).

I don't think I'd be strong enough to stay in it after being sentenced to a lifetime of jail in a North Korean prison camp.

The "beatings" and "torture" talk all seems to be false propaganda that wasn't backed up by any evidence with several officials noting no signs of beatings or torture, which is disgusting.

Text generation is neat. The first few iterations are nonsensical but then real words start appearing, then phrases start making sense, then the correct punctuation comes along and the machine is spitting out sentences, and before you know it the machine has created readable paragraphs. I have no idea what I'm doing, but it blows my mind.

Good on Catherine Bernard in thinking outside the box to fight for the common-man committing victim-less crimes. No one should have his life ruined for smoking pot and most reasonable people recognize such (i.e., in the USA a criminal record is basically a hex for life with, among other things, a majority of companies maintaining zero-tolerance hiring policies for applicant's with a criminal record).

The ignorant judge that punished her for legally advocating for her client's rights should be removed from the bench.

"'He [the judge] told me I couldn't say it, so of course I continued to say it,'" she told me of her references to the state constitution and the power of the jury."
