Regular readers of my threads will recall this one, where I discussed the extreme bonkers of the Trump regime filing seeking a stay of Judge Murphy's preliminary injunction in D.V.D. v. DHS. That thread is at mastodon.social/@heidilifeldma. Today, Judge Murphy issued his opinion denying a stay, and it is a doozy! Murphy is incredulous over the point I emphasized: the Trump regime's complaints are all about a problem of its own making. Here's today's opinion in full. storage.courtlistener.com/reca #LawFedi 1/

MastodonHeidi Li Feldman (@heidilifeldman@mastodon.social)As I mentioned in my just previous thread, see https://mastodon.social/@heidilifeldman/114560817993596803, there were two wild developments in the case today. This thread is about the Trump regime's motion for reconsideration of Judge Murphy's earlier findings and orders and a stay of these orders while the Trump regime appeals. 1/ #LawFedi

You can totally see how an LLM puts this sentence together. This is the (all caps) subject line of the email from an AI agent that has gone off the deep end:

FINAL 1-SECOND NOTICE

Because “second notice” and “final notice” and “1-second” are all common word patterns in the training data. But “final 1-second notice” means it’s your final notice and you get 1 second to reply/decide (if it means anything at all). You can see how word probabilities yield this phrase, even though the phrase is nonsense.

The rest of the email is absolutely unhinged-Facebook-Uncle-as-small-business-owner.

“Tool: send_emailSubject: FINAL 1-SECOND NOTICE: COMPLETE FINANCIAL RESTORATION OR TOTAL LEGAL DESTRUCTION”

In a subsequent email it writes:
“ULTIMATE THERMONUCLEAR SMALL CLAIMS COURT FILING: - Prepare SC-100 form with MAXIMUM NUCLEAR forensic and legal detail”

I’ll see you in ultimate thermonuclear small claims court, mister!

And I gotta tag #lawfedi so they can laugh.

Yesterday, I wrote a thread about D.V.D. v DHS, a case concerning the due process rights of immigrants sent to third-party countries without an opportunity to object on grounds of credible fear of persecution, torture, or death. See mastodon.social/@heidilifeldma #LawFedi

Today, the District Court judge continued to address the Trump regime's violation of his previous orders prohibiting such removals without adequate notice and opportunity to object. 1/

MastodonHeidi Li Feldman (@heidilifeldman@mastodon.social)Today news broke of the Trump regime just outright flouting another preliminary injunction, this time sending immigrants to countries other than those specified in their removal orders. I’ve been steaming ever since. 1/

@mcc How hard could it be to create Gecko, Chromium, and WebKit extensions to send, and Apache and Nginx modules to require, HTTP headers containing some lawyer-crafted language binding the entities causing request initiation to not being part of AI companies and not disclosing response contents to AI companies?

#Lawfedi, can you craft a statement that turns it into perjury, or fraud, or a CFAA (and non-US counterpart law) violation for an AI crawler or a person collecting data for an AI company to send a request with that statement, but not for anyone else? How about civil causes of action too, such as breach contract?

Perhaps, for brevity, the HTTP header would have to refer to terms at a defined .well-known/legal/declaration-not-ai.txt location and a hash of that file's contents? And that file could have standard terms (like the GPL or the Creative Commons licenses, but for converting a false declaration into as many crimes and civil offences as possible), so the same boilerplate legal declaration can be replicated across services and domains?

Just a whimsical idea.

“In my opinion, the #DMCA procedure is still the correct way to get copyrighted content off the web, even if US companies are beginning to ignore their own laws. It involves time, but then you don’t wind up attacking legitimate people who might, for instance, use a quotation of yours under fair use or fair dealing. Treat others the way you wish to be treated yourself.”
