Hello y'all! Fantastic strategic move to sue. How do you see the standing argument shaping up? Will it matter from an organizational versus individual basis? How do you keep Jewell from happening again?

ES didn't choose Russia, it is where he got stuck en route from HK to somewhere else, like Ecuador or Brazil. Remember the whole time he was stuck in the airport?

I have always thought that was part of what was irrefutable about WMF's position - the tremendous data which can be brought to bear in formulating hypotheticals re government inquiry in specific areas of "interest". Metadata about edits/viewership of "foreign intelligence" scans into the hundreds of millions of records per tiny time slice. During my time running WMF, the example I used often was protecting the identity of editors who were critical of the King of Thailand, because of their notorious record cracking down on dissenters. Knowing that we must stand up for all readers as well as editors empowers all of us - freedom demands it.
