  Electronic Frontier Foundation v Watch Tower Society

  by Corney in

  [disclaimer: the headline is slightly misleading since the eff itself doesn't participate in the case, so read more below].

  it's not a secret that during the last two years watchtower obtained nearly 40 dmca subpoenas requiring google, facebook, instagram, twitter, soundcloud, scribd, reddit and other isps to provide personal information of users that allegedly infringed the society's copyright.. since subpoena proceeding is ex parte, almost all the requests were granted.. but one of the affected users contacted, on advice of youtube's legal team, the electronic frontier foundation (eff), and the foundation found a law firm ready to represent him pro bono, namely garvey schubert barer:.

  youtube's legal department emailed the user on or about july 10, 2018, five days before the subpoena's return date, stating that it would comply with the subpoena unless it received a file-stamped motion to quash "or other type of formal objection before july 20, 2018.

  Even " good" witnesses find humor in the goings on at the hall, if they will admit it.

  Hope we will find new lego movies and the animated ones.

  The usual argument is people with blood loss sometimes live anyway and some who get blood still die. True, but they ignore the brain damage that has occured in some from insufficient oxygen. Then they bring up imcompatible blood, aids, hepatitis. There is no way to know the outcome of an path not taken.

  it is an interesting case of why "equal pay" isn't quite what you think it is.

  2. beliefs

  do you think the jdubs will start up the door whacking again one day?.

  there has to be many inside the org that are dreading having to do that again and as for the general public seeing this, it’s hard to imagine.

  7-11 is about it. I seldom used odd hours save for a few last minute trip items. The bank always called my wife for transactions done at 3 am. Good on them

  But they are still stuck in a 50s or earlier mindset. I wonder if the Saturday ritual was ever more than busy work. I remember not one single person at home; best part was donuts or if lucky waiting in the car while a study was conducted because only two were allowed to go in.

  Remember Sunday meeting at 6? Go out in the morning and guilt those who missed church.

  my apologies if it was covered.

  mark sanderson was stressing several times how timely the watchtower teachings are.

  my thoughts on his example : the article on neutrality from november 1939. .

  Faith-Apostasy-Atheism

  by DoubtingThomas in

  1. watchtower
  2. beliefs

  i have been on m any different forums, and only carm is similar to this.. all the rest have rather hypocritical trust in god.. this and carm are for those who apostate to the wtbs and to god.. turned off by the gb, or hypocritical examples in the congregation, they drop worshiping god and their belief in the bible... for they know too much,.

  that's why scripture isn't discussed, and jws like me, are demonized.. i am cool with that!

  maybe some of you will come to their senses!.
