These were accounts that shouldn't have had console access in the first place, and were never used by humans to log in AFAICT. I don't know exactly what they were originally for, b…

I would normally say that "That must be a coincidence", but I had a client account compromise as well. And it was very strange: Client was a small org, and two very old IAM account…

Structuring (splitting up cash deposits to a bank so that they don't trigger the bank to file a CTR) comes to mind. It does have a mens rea component, but the money being entirely …

Monopoly concerns are better addressed by going after monopolies for being anticompetitive. Intermediary liability seems pretty orthogonal to competition concerns. I would need a l…

That thinking strikes me as "clear, simple, and wrong". (I appreciate that 230's bright-line rule may also be clear, simple and wrong) Consider defamation. Often, the difference be…

The idea that there's an indistinct difference between "publisher" and "common carrier" doesn't seem right. Google or Facebook are not, and have never been, common carriers. The en…

The "idea that these providers are simply neutral carriers of content" is a false premise, isn't it? The piece you link is ... weird. First, it doesn't really describe the problem …

Of the half that are dark, how many are working late, out to dinner, out of town, etc? That half the units are dark from 7-9PM doesn't mean they're not someone's primary residence.…
