No court is universally on the side of free speech. It was not an accusation of being a high school student. (I'm not even sure what the "accusation" would imply.) The question about high school was to assess why you thought the Morse decision was on the same level as Citizens United.

And I'm not sure what you being in the top 50 has to do with anything.



By the top 50 remark he meant that you have a large body of material from which to ascertain that he is not a high school student.


I wonder who the youngest on http://news.ycombinator.com/leaders (top 100) is. I see a few people I recognize as late-20s, at least, but most in 30s, and plenty in 40s-60s range


I doubt they'd admit it. From bitter experience, you can be as respected as you like in a community like this, but the moment you reveal you're 14, everyone will stop listening to you.


Unless you are someone like Aaron Swartz, who was incredibly influential as a teenager.
