Any of y'all seen the statements from other media magnates taking about how this is a danger to free speech? Lol just lol dude yeah I'm sure you're just having a lapse of logic and forgetting that free speech doesn't protect invasion of privacy and you're not at all just worried about your own investments in gossip rags

billionaires can secretly shut down entire publications out of spite, but what really matters is that some dumb gossip website is maybe going out of business

It's not a secret. A bad person broke the law by invading the privacy of another bad person and a third bad person used the opportunity to get back at the first. Everything is fine

I can't think of anything of substance that Gawker Media has ever done. The only thing that comes to mind is when someone doxxed the reddit mod that was running all the pedophile subreddits.

Although I guess that instance drove me to join SA so yknow one step forward two steps back.

Your favorite subreddit got closed so you came to SA?
