"The American people need to have 21st century rules to deal with 21st century cyberstalking, stalking, harassment and that type of threat. This is not about core 1st Amendment rights. People don't have the right to harass other people and threaten them."

In a 7-2 ruling w/ #Justice Elena Kagan writing for the majority, the #court emphasized that true #threats of #violence are not protected by the #FirstAmendment. But to guard against a chilling effect on non-threatening speech, the majority said states must prove that a #criminal defendant has “disregarded a substantial risk that his communications would be viewed as threatening violence.” Justices Clarence Thomas & Amy Coney Barrett dissented.
#SCOTUS says a conviction for #online #threats violated #1stAmendment
The #SupremeCourt on Tues reversed the conviction of a man who made extensive #OnlineThreats to a stranger, saying #FreeSpeech protections require prosecutors to prove the stalker was aware of the threatening nature of his communications.

The Guardian: Scientist who stumbled upon Wuhan Covid data speaks out
tl;dr: 「A pre-print analysis of the same swabs, released by the Chinese Centre for Disease Control and Prevention (CCDC) in February 2022 claimed they had included human DNA and coronavirus traces, but showed no evidence of the kinds of animals most likely to have been vectors for the virus.
Their findings supported arguments made by some Chinese officials that the Wuhan market was merely a site where the virus spread among humans, rather than the cradle where it made its first fateful leap from animals to people. But when Débarre and her colleagues analysed the same data, they received another result. “It was the Latin name for raccoon dog, multiple times,” she says. “It was one of the greatest emotions of my life.”
Raccoon dogs, omnivorous east Asian cousins of the fox, are highly susceptible to coronavirus infections and shed the virus in sufficient quantities to infect animals and humans around them. In other words: a suspect was confirmed to have been present at the scene.」
「To the storm of questions swirling around Covid-19’s origins, this latest episode has added more. Why were the results of the swabs taken in the early months of Covid-19 withheld from the scientific community for more than three years? Why did the first version of the Chinese study claim not to have found any raccoon dog DNA? And why were the genetic sequences quietly uploaded to Gisaid – left online long enough to be discovered – and then removed from public view?」
