Agreed- They're going to capitulate to law enforcement without a court order if they don't like your politics... or if it's inconvenient for them.

When we cooperate with law enforcement, we do not do so blindly. We review their activities, both for abuse of power and to make sure proper processes are followed to protect our members’ rights. Such things are vanishingly rare, not (as they are sometimes depicted) the default. So if you’re expecting that we will automatically say, “Shove it, coppah!” anytime the police come calling about your site, we’re not the right service for you.

I'm imagining basically walls of well-placed mirrors. That would take care of quite a bit of the lighting costs, at least.

... or windows. We could call the building housing these green things "greenhouses."

we had a weekly lab meeting where one of our lab members would pick a piece of published literature in our field and break down how bullshit it was.

Did you (or your lab members) publish contradictory results, or should I just trust this assessment?

Work and verification of work builds on each other. And every once in a while, we have a major milestone that verifies that much of the work that went into accomplishing the milestone (such as the moon landing) is generally correct.

Right- that's called trust. I can't independently launch my own lunar program, so I trust those that did... did.
