And when doing that they've been instructing those parties to follow new interpretations of Federal statutory language. <br /><br />As we'd seen recently, the terms Misinformation and Disinformation are key examples - where punitive enforcement against 'misinformation' can be triggered regardless of probity or intent and without due processes. Disinformation appears to require an intent to contradict some authorized claim - it's not clear to me.<br /><br />But what the Biden admin is doing is illegal - they cannot evade their constitutional and statutory obligations by soliciting private parties to act on their behalf. Doing so strips both the 3rd party and the gov't of tort immunity under the Federal Tort Claims Act. <br /><br />So if the MBML has been inspired to pursue misinformation claims more aggressively a/o expansively by such guidance, their actions are illicit. And that's true regardless of whether their stated definition a/o guidelines concerning misinformation have been revised Tyronoreply@blogger.com
