Intent can play a part in the attorneys discretion to bring forth the case. But the espionage act does not require intent.

No it wouldn't with the new precedent and the espionage act. The espionage act only has to show that they did the action of publishing the leak. They don't have to prove any sort of intent.

Another key difference is that the Trump administration charged Julian Assange for publishing leaked documents. In the past it was the leakers that would be prosecuted, but publishers weren't because of the chilling effect on free press that would cause. Now we're seeing that chilling effect in action.

Opera and Edge are Chromium based. Even most of the alternatives are still Google controlled.

I knew there was some way the insurance company was weaseling out of paying.

Still weird to want to fuck your sister.

That seems like it shouldn't matter... Either two half size payouts or one full payout is what it seems like it should be. I'm sure there are some shenanigans that make it not that simple when it really should be.
