My question to Meta is, why bother to roll out the cannons to blast this tome? The effort to neutralize the book seems quaint and futile. For one thing, NDAs do not cancel out the first amendment, @stevenlevy.bsky.social writes.

I’m watching The Wire finally (I know, I’m 2 decades late), and Bodie just got killed. I am not handling it well! This finale was hard.
