    The crux of it is

    ‘If X owned the data, it could perhaps argue it has exclusive rights to control the data, but then it wouldn’t have safe harbor.’ if you own it you don’t get section 230 protection.

    This judge is also the one who stomped Oracle, in Oracle vs Google

    Technically it is a “Judge says” post, but they still made it look like one of the old “Elon says” posts

      His drug of choice is ketamine. Fuck me, why do I know that?

          Sure… but why do I just know that? He’s just some random ass celeb. Why is that fact stored in my memory?

            I wouldn’t even grace him with “celeb” - you only know anything about Musk because he’s a gigantic aloof piece of shit lol

              I LITERALLY only know Elon is because of the media, and the fact he pops up on X all the time, to every user I assume.
