OK, gather 'round, kiddies - let's do a "why are lawyers like this" thread.
Specifically, let's do a "why does the simplest software come with mandatory IP licenses that assert claims to all the rights you have in the universe, up to and possibly not excluding in your firstborn offspring.

One of hundreds of people abducted by ICE and sold to slavery in El Salvador was a 19 year old with no criminal record in the US or Venezuela and no tattoos of any kind.
An ICE kidnapper who grabbed him outside his house said, "He's not the one."
The other said, "Take him anyway."
So they did.

People in the comments were right: the administration is taking advantage of Hegseth's security violation to take the first giant step down the road to ensuring we never have free or fair elections again
