He gave me one of my first, truly safe jobs and opportunities as a PA for a project he was working on years ago. He made it a point to say “I want to see more Black women in this industry…” and then proved it with his actions. I got to hug him last year after not seeing him for sometime. We spoke via iPad. He was incredibly proud of me. This is all that matters. Honored to know this man. I am truly glad he is free.

TL;DR: Proposed site-blocking legislation, including the Foreign Anti-Digital Piracy Act, threatens free speech and could lead to widespread censorship online, reviving past controversies over internet blacklists. Critics argue such measures are ineffective and undermine due process, echoing a decade-long struggle against government overreach in digital rights. https://www.eff.org/deeplinks/2025/04/congress-reviving-site-blocking-and-its-just-dangerous-ever #law #tech #legaltech ⚖️ 🤖 #autosum
