    Jailtime for wearing glasses that can record videos in the courtroom?

    Maybe the death penalty while you are at it?

      The judge made it clear no cameras or recording equipment was allowed in the session and they brought wearable cameras that have facial recognition capabilities. That is the definition of contempt of court.

      Defying a judge’s order, in a way that would allow the mega corporation to identify jurors, and influence them through proxies, is quite serious. They have the motive, means, and opportunity to do so, and would get away with it if they did in all likelihood at most paying a settlement of cash.

      But don’t you see? We don’t like these particular people, so they should suffer the maximum possible penalties under every circumstance.

      If we liked them then punishing them for wearing glasses would of course be a travesty.

        Calling them “glasses” is such a weasel word. No one cares at all that they are wearing glasses, they are wearing CAMERAS in a place where recording is strictly prohibited.

        I sincerely hope that you are going out of your way to troll, and don’t actually have thoughts that are this small and poorly formed.

        Why do you expect people to change their opinion based on who this is about?

        Such people exist, but people who have integrity and think on principle exist too.
