Welcome to c/news! Please read the Hexbear Code of Conduct and remember... we're all comrades here.

Rules:

-- PLEASE KEEP POST TITLES INFORMATIVE --

-- Overly editorialized titles, particularly if they link to opinion pieces, may get your post removed. --

-- All posts must include a link to their source. Screenshots are fine IF you include the link in the post body. --

-- If you are citing a twitter post as news please include not just the twitter.com in your links but also nitter.net (or another Nitter instance). There is also a Firefox extension that can redirect Twitter links to a Nitter instance: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/libredirect/ or archive them as you would any other reactionary source using e.g. https://archive.today . Twitter screenshots still need to be sourced or they will be removed --

-- Mass tagging comm moderators across multiple posts like a broken markov chain bot will result in a comm ban--

-- Repeated consecutive posting of reactionary sources, fake news, misleading / outdated news, false alarms over ghoul deaths, and/or shitposts will result in a comm ban.--

-- Neglecting to use content warnings or NSFW when dealing with disturbing content will be removed until in compliance. Users who are consecutively reported due to failing to use content warnings or NSFW tags when commenting on or posting disturbing content will result in the user being banned. --

-- Using April 1st as an excuse to post fake headlines, like the resurrection of Kissinger while he is still fortunately dead, will result in the poster being thrown in the gamer gulag and be sentenced to play and beat trashy mobile games like 'Raid: Shadow Legends' in order to be rehabilitated back into general society. --

Christian Hillsdale College failed students who reported sexual violence, lawsuit alleges

Several California residents have filed a lawsuit against Hillsdale College for spam emails, court documents show.

California’s anti-spam laws regulate spam sent to residents, according to a complaint filed Thursday in federal court.

Hillsdale College and several third-party publishers, who sent emails on Hillsdale’s behalf, are accused of sending over 1,400 “unlawful unsolicited commercial email advertisements” that promoted the college.

In the lawsuit, the third-party publishers are accused of concealing their identities to send the emails, allegedly using untraceable domain names — or third-party domain names without permission — in email headers so that recipients could not identify who actually sent the emails.

Even if Hillsdale itself did not actually send the emails, the lawsuit says the college chose to work with third-party senders to promote itself and can also be held responsible for the emails.

“This Court should award liquidated damages of $1,000 per email … and not consider any reduction in damages, because Hillsdale and its affiliate-senders failed to implement reasonably effective systems to prevent advertising in/conspiring to advertise in unlawful spams,” the complaint reads. michael-laugh
