Master’s, academic publishers, beer, adverts
I submitted my dissertation a day early. No late nights before the deadline, no last-minute rush, no panic. I used to pride myself on quoting Douglas Adams, with his deadlines making a whooshing sound as they fly by, but in the end I was relaxed and ahead of time. So uncool. My past self doesn't...

Republicans Stumble In Bid To Flood Midterm Airwaves With Discounted Ads
Back in June, the Supreme Court ruled 6–3 in National Republican Senatorial Committee v.

Another California Court Has Now Broken Media Advertising, So The Copia Institute Asked Another California Appeals Court To Fix It
A few years ago a California appeals court produced the unfortunate Liapes v. Facebook decision. In this decision, it gave the go-ahead to age discrimination claims under California’s Unruh Act resulting from ads not being served to users of certain ages. It’s a nonsensical application of anti-discrimination law, because ads are not themselves the goods...

What was selling out?
Back in the latter part of the 20th century, a lot of subcultures held onto a concept called "selling out", a nebulously-defined idea based on a negative view of compromising one's values or creative expression in the pursuit of money or, sometimes, power. And the thing is, like a lot of taboos or…
