You're litigating something I had no involvement in that happened 20 years ago as if I currently have the moral agency to change the outcome.

I don't know why you're engaging this way but this conversation is definitionally a waste of time.

I’m litigating this conversation - you supported outing somebody and publishing someone else’s sex tape. As an adult human being you know this is wrong. You are mistaken and you know you are mistaken.

No. I support the concept of an open society with an institution of journalism that isn't stultified by powerful forces that seek to control information

Sometimes that's sex tapes and Epstein Island

It's ok. We're not going to resolve things here

I think you believe this stance is standing up to power. But the media is powerful in their own right and nobody needs the details of their sex lives published without their consent- not Peter Thiel, not you, and not me.

Would you then be okay with journalists publishing CSAM images & videos from the Epstein case?
