Big day for "panopticon" watchers. I predict that the "virtual panopticon" test will become new shorthand for Chatrie/Carpenter. Does the system of private surveillance create a V.P.? Both concurrences point to that phrase as a key to the test.
*Tap Tap* Is this thing on? I'm going to post for the second time ever, to respond to today's landmark Chatrie ruling from the Supreme Court.
I'm not enough of a 1st Amendment scholar to weigh in so early on Paxton, but because Reno v. ACLU was decided at the end of my 1L year and first sparked my interest in internet law, it seems fitting to mark the day that the court held that Reno's "Internet" is no longer today's internet.
A good moment to post for the first time. As I just said on a listserv: Tiktok "is the most pro-data-privacy/pro-data-protection opinion the Supreme Court has ever issued! Now given the track record, maybe that's not saying a lot. And given the unusual context, who knows what can be made of this?"
