In what appears to be an escalating incursion into a user’s digital privacy, a collective of film companies continue to implore the court to compel Reddit to surrender its users’ personal details. This move is part of an ongoing piracy liability case against Internet Service Providers. Reddit, however, steadfastly resists, staunchly defending its users’ rights to anonymous speech.

        With the writers and actors all in strike, they won’t be putting out any movies until they decide to be less shitty and come to the table in good faith, or all the writers starve and come crawling back because they have families to feed. I’m not holding my breath on a happy ending, honestly.

        That reminds me, I had this great idea for a movie! How about an alternate universe sequel to that prequel to that gritty reboot of that older film franchise that was based on that TV series from forever ago that was based on a comic book? Only this time, they gotta save the multiverse!!! And by that I mean the final battle will be like an ADHD fever dream of CGI fighting in New York City.

    • Is this even within the statute of limitations? I know that supposedly they want this person to be a witness in a case against an ISP and supposedly don’t want to pursue action against this individual, but fuck them anyways.
