Trump’s Enormous Gamble on Regime Change in Iran
Tom Nichols, writing for The Atlantic:
When the 2003 war with Iraq ended, U.S. Ambassador Barbara Bodine said that when American diplomats embarked on reconstruction, they ruefully joked that “there were 500 ways to do it wrong and two or three ways to do it right.

West Virginia’s Anti-Apple CSAM Lawsuit Would Help Child Predators Walk Free
Mike Masnick, writing for Techdirt:
Read that again. If West Virginia wins — if an actual court orders Apple to start scanning iCloud for CSAM — then every image flagged by those mandated scans becomes evidence obtained through a warrantless government search conducted without probable cause. The Fourth Amendment’s exclusionary rule means defense attorneys get to walk into court and demand that evidence be thrown out. And they’ll win that motion. It’s not even a particularly hard case to make.
