![]() They target information based on data they gather about people. They control the information that people receive. I mean, these companies are enormously powerful. So through this lawsuit, this family is attempting to do legally what many people wish they could do, which is hold an internet company responsible for the real world consequences of how ugly, online content can hurt people in the real world - in this case, through someone being killed. Now, there’s little direct proof that any actual terrorist looked at an actual particular video, but nonetheless, atmospherically, it is the case that YouTube posted some of these videos and served them up to you one after the other if you were interested. The lawsuit brought by Nohemi Gonzalez’s family sues YouTube, Google’s video service, on the theory that YouTube bore some responsibility for these attacks by hosting and posting videos that the family says helped inspire and radicalize the terrorists. And among those people was a young American student - a 23-year-old college student named Nohemi Gonzalez, and ISIS claimed responsibility for the attacks. So the case is called Gonzalez versus Google, and it arises from a terrible terrorist attack in Paris in November of 2015 where more than 100 people were killed, including at the Bataclan Concert Hall. My colleague, Adam Liptak, was in the room.Īdam, tell us about this big case that was argued before the Supreme Court just a few days ago. This week, the Supreme Court heard arguments in a case that could take that shield away. Today - the modern internet has been defined by a sweeping legal shield created by Congress. michael barbaroįrom The New York Times, I’m Michael Barbaro.

Ignore the completion from the likes of Bose, beats, JBL etc. Requiring the app to parry up may look cool with the dots and all, but functions 10x better and consistently on the cheaper wonderboom models (which sadly are limited to 2 max otherwise I'd just buy 8 of them). EQ, nice to have but I'll trade it any day for rock solid audio with no cutouts. If I need to physically get up and walk over to turn one on/off or adjust the volume so be it. The app looks nice and all but at the end of the day all I'm looking for is a high quality stable connection between multiple speakers. It shouldn't be an iterative process to successfully get 3 speakers partied up and by no means should any have audio cutting out while sitting next to one another fully charged playing music (5G WiFi, downloaded tracks, whatever, there's a codec issue here). Audio quality and connection should be paramount over all of the other convenience features. Spotty Audio Connections on Party Up, App is Style Over SubstanceĬart before the horse here on execution. Otherwise, if it is in the budget, get a pair of PSB, ELAC or Klipsch active speakers if you do not necessarily need portability. Spend you money JBL if you want to connect via cable. This should be considered an absolute embarrassment for a company such as this. AND burn the draft boards it was written on. RECOMMENDATION: Burn this disaster of an attempt at a bluetooth app. Yes, my bluetooth function works because I writing this message with my Logitech K760 Solar Keyboard via bluetooth. This is worse than the KEF LSX attempt at a bluetooth app. ![]() The software, once downloaded onto my iPhone, never shows the MegaBoom in the bluetooth window. I tried to return the speaker but it was beyond the return date. Also, it will no longer connect via bluetooth to my MacBook Pro. It is bad enough that there is no way to extinguish that obnoxious sound that it makes when turning on or off and no AUX jack/port on the UE Megaboom to connect directly but this is putting rock salt into a gunshot wound £ stitching it closed. It is unfathomable that Logitech is associated with this nonsense. It’s too bad one cannot give negative stars! Everyone involved in developing this worthless drivel need to be given Pink Slips £ escorted to the exit immediately. ![]()
