I'm not saying what they did was correct, but they were allegedly told that he had a drug operation and a kidnapping dungeon.

which is fine. But they didn't vet this info, just ran with it. Massive negligence & duty failure

A judge reviewed the evidence and signed the warrant. It's not like the cops just took what the witness said and ran with it.

As a reminder, they are likely subject to the lifetime prepublication review[1] which requires anything published to be reviewed by the agency prior to publishing.

Morally Righteous? I think it's more they don't have to so they don't. It's like the DVR days where you'd just fast forward ads. It wasn't a moral high ground, it was just easy to do and was better than the alternative.


I do actually think that putting ads in front of children at least is immoral, and it is neglectful not to block ads for kids in the same way that it is to just hand them an unfiltered violence-and-porn device.

It's probably at least irresponsible to not block ads for an elderly parent who's starting to experience cognitive decline.


Dutifully watching the ads doesn't seem moral either, it seems insane.
