My new blog post might of interest to anyone running websites / developing apps for people in the UK:

# An overview of the UK's updated laws on storing information in someone's terminal equipment, and accessing information stored in someone's terminal equipment

Catchy. But useful (I hope).

I must admit that - as you'll see towards the end - some of this baffles me.

Meanwhile, the IRS has been in cahoots with ICE. Judge Kollar-Kottelly explains. “Of the 47,289 taxpayer addresses that the IRS disclosed to ICE through these two mutually
exclusive matching processes, 90.3% (i.e., 42,695 addresses) were matched by TIN Matching,
while the other 9.7% (i.e., 4,594 addresses) were matched by Address Matching. Id. ¶ 10.” … 1/2 #LawFedi

Finally (!) finished reading the 170-page (!!) IEEPA/Trump tariffs case, Learning Resources v. Trump. Yes, I’m glad that the immediate result was the Supreme Court clearly invalidating a Trump effort to assert dictatorial power. But the opinions in the case as a group showcase the mediocrity of the Roberts Court as a whole. #LawFedi 1/

I see that people are rightfully outraged about the DOJ keeping track of what members of congress view in the Epstein files.

I want you to know that in some electronic discovery formats, prosecutors can track what defense counsel look at as well.

This is not disclosed. You have to know and then either demand the discovery on physical media or download it all at once and then never access it online again to avoid tracking.
