[ot][spam][crazy][projects][spam] idea: breaking article walls
by Undescribed Horrific Abuse, One Victim & Survivor of Many 18 Jul '23

18 Jul '23

given the experience-space around cypherpunks and article walls, maybe a fun idea would be an AI bot that breaks the article walls automatically it might: - subscribe to cypherpunks, even if the list is dead - wait for messages containing links - identify if the messages link to non-inlined articles - visit the non-inlined articles and identify if they are walled via anything other than plaintext/plain-html access - engage the site to navigate the wall - access the article text - send a reply email containing it alternatively: - find the article text elsewhere - send a reply email containing it (with a link at start) the bot-idea would be capable of registering for for-pay services using a fake identity provided by the user (likely there's) the user would also provide a source of funds for this registration. it is assumed this is done via cryptocurrency investments from other projects. project simplifies to basic web navigation with ai could maybe focus on one or two examples

Ireland Approves Third Party Rules for International Arbitration Funding - Litigation Finance Journal
by Gunnar Larson 18 Jul '23

18 Jul '23

Check out my new article: https://litigationfinancejournal.com/ireland-approves-third-party-rules-for… Ireland’s President has approved legislation that allows third parties to finance international commercial arbitration. Historically, Ireland has enacted a very restrictive approach to third party funding vehicles to finance litigation costs in the name of champerty. Mondaq reports that legislative approval of Ireland’s “Courts and Civil Law (Miscellaneous Provisions) Act 2023” advances many provisions concerning Ministerial Order. While Ireland still maintains a hawkish approach to champerty, now litigation financiers can enter into investment agreements to fund international arbitration proceedings. Anticipation has been building that Ireland’s Law Reform Commission may release new guidelines to vacate the broad prohibition of third party funding. Specifically, Ireland has only approved third party funding of dispute level proceedings, including international commercial arbitration, mediation, conciliation and/or court proceedings derived from international commercial arbitration. Previously, Ireland’s Supreme Court had been hesitant to embrace the notion of litigation finance in any form.
