Here's the letter that Knight First Amendment Institute just sent to President Shafik about free speech at Columbia (with corrected URL) knightcolumbia.org/blog/knight-in…

Mike Pence's NYT op-ed is a perfect example of why I publish Abortion, Every Day: His column uses pretty much every language trick I've warned about for the last two years.

He also repeats debunked lies about abortion that I sort of can't believe made it past a fact-checker

With the Senate about to pass the TikTok ban/divestment bill, some thoughts in Lawfare on the FIrst Amendment implications. Short version: The level of constitutional scrutiny doesn't matter. And the main issue is Chinese influence, not data privacy. lawfaremedia.org/article/five-o…

I'm so tired of being in rooms where people whisper about the absolute ARMY of Big Tech-funded people (most, but not all, ex-Googlers) that have popped up in nearly every corridor in DC where people are working on literally anything to do with AI. So let's talk about it! 1/12

Good piece by David Evans on why excessive regulation is harming the European digital economy. This is why it is so important that our eyes in the USA be on the rollout of the DMA. Until now, the EU has provided too many examples of what not to do. pymnts.com/opinion/2024/w…

You should listen to this episode of the Legality podcast so you can also enjoy the story of Scott Shapiro getting roasted by Ronald Dworkin to an audience of jurisprudes.

Highly recommend the rebuttal of Dworkin’s characterisation of positivism too.

Musk comes out against a TikTok ban, even though a ban would likely benefit X. (The bill would require divestiture, failing which, it would impose a ban. TikTok seems to suggest that it would likely lead to a ban.)

A great way to produce more while understanding less. nature.com/articles/s4158…

I feel genuinely bad for the Columbia Law Review students who put together a really cool call for papers about the law of protest and then had their university administration turn the entire campus into a simulation of the topic

This is barbaric: Emergency rooms refused to treat pregnant women, leaving one to miscarry in a lobby restroom apnews.com/article/pregna…

Professor Jack Balkin, who's been studying technology since the ’90s, says today’s views on artificial intelligence are no different than views of the internet then. “Nobody could clearly see all of its potentials and dangers.”

I think of it as a financial suicide pact

Fascinating anecdote from former President toomas ilves, ex-verif at Project Liberty conference: Apparently, in the Estonian property registry, all transactions are logged, so that you, as a property owner, can see who is looking at your property record.

V much worth reading

The AI bubble is not bursting.

More investors are just realizing that Nvidia doesn’t make chips. They design them and TSMC makes them. And Nvidia’s biggest customers (Meta, Amazon, OpenAI, Microsoft, Google, etc) have ALL announced they are designing their own AI chips for both

🚨 New paper! Thanks to Yale Journal on Regulation for publishing my essay, 'Interpreting the Ambiguities of Section 230,' in which I argue that refocusing on Section 230 as a standard statutory interpretation problem rather than a policy debate over liability is the best path forward for courts.
