Why was Thiel's funding even necessary for Hogan to seek justice? To me, that's an even bigger question.
From what i remember, Gawker refused a takedown order, bragged about doing so, all on a hidden-cam porn of a person taken without their knowledge. What Gawker did was screwed up, no way around it.
So why was a Billionaire needed to fund this?

There was no way he could have taken this to a jury on his own.
That's my point. A Billionaire's funding should not be necessary for justice. While i have little respect for Thiel, I don't see what he did as entirely unjustified.
Thank you for your response.

Ma'am,
I was born and raised in NYS, and left when i was 18 to join the USAF. After doing my time, i got out and lived in for several months in Louisiana with some friends, re-adjusting to civilian life. While looking at several colleges in NY, I was informed that as i spent several months in Louisiana (and paid taxes there for the time i lived there), I was notified that I was no longer considered a NYS resident, and thus subject to (much higher) out of state tuition rates.
Do you know of any way to get around this/is there any way? According to the individuals i've talked to, I'd have to re-establish my residency, which means putting my college plans on hold for another year.
Thank you for taking the time to do this.
