Bold New World

 I sat and read through this story.....the University of Washington Law School has drafted up this idea which basically says....as a 'guest' of their school....there would be regulations to limit what you say on social media.  

I pondered over this for a while.

Who exactly would determine the list of forbidden topics?  That's not clear.  It sounds like the University law school folks would have the final say.  Who made them special?  Well....that's not clear either. 

For example....you might wake up one day, and find that discussing whores or hookers was a bad thing (thus forbidden to talk about) but slutty women was approved (thus a good thing).

Another example, you could wake up and chatting about blacks and high cholesterol was a forbidden topic, but it was ok to chat about whites and high cholesterol.  

Personally, I'd look at the situation (if I were a student) and build a secret identity with a fake moustache, $19 used wig, and a VPN that led back to Gila Bend, Arizona.   

Six months into this deal....if they finalize it....you'd probably see a thousand fake ID folks....chatting over forbidden university topics, and the university elites just grumbling that people weren't supposed to do fake identities.
