Everyone's so anti-police until we need them to defend against white supremacists. And most of these libertarian "1st amendment audit" and "copblock" types are covert white supremacists.
I 100% support this law. Police should not live in fear of being recorded out of context when they're doing their duty to protect the citizenry.
And then maybe Hasan Piker or H3H3 can run in 2028. I'm really optimistic about the effect the internet is having in mobilizing young Americans into politics.

Only a small proportion of people are actually going to sue, and often people like this guy come onto the site, sell one item, and leave. There is little reason to try to retain him, he's demonstrated no value to the company. There's a certain amount of money that can be made by banning single-sale accounts after receiving the funds and a smaller expected loss from lawsuits. Compound this with the fact that small claims courts are closed in many states and it's clear eBay is actually being very shrewd here. I get that it's sad to lose some money, but it's an important lesson that you can't just swoop in to benefit off of others' work without providing value yourself.
Fasting brings quick results. Many on this site have trouble making sustained life changes because they spend a lot of time on the internet, and excessive internet use fuels impulsive habits. This leads people to choose health interventions that bring quick results that they can use to conclude a novel, controversial stance. When faced with RCTs, or waiting a decade to report an anecdote, or generation-long observational studies, or comparing with other more normal interventions, it's understandable why the broscience is attractive. We need positive results now.
