Many years ago I read an article in The Believer (an online magazine) about a JW girl who lost her religion as a missionary in China - does anyone know if that superb article was written by this young lady?

Amber Scorah on cults
by dozy inamber gives a superb talk here.
i couldn't help but contrast her delivery - fluent , articulate , without any notes - not even a rostrum or podium to hide behind - with the numerous talks and items i heard when i was a jw.. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=e7wfpaqcqcw.
i am reading her book " leaving the witness " just now - it is superb - i just can't put it down.

Could you make the top one with JW Facts - you know as a beneficial misdirect rather than a link to the borg.

Rebecca
"...they all turned their backs on him when he was going through hard times," this is a hallmark of what fake Christians most JW families are.
Jesus was said to recommend forgiving 7 x 70 times, but in 18 years his own JW family couldn't imagine doing it even once - for a member of their own family!
JW's never forgive - ever.
They've hated him for 18 years, and they have a special brand of hate for you and your kids too.
JW men are a bizarre mixture of delusional cowards and self-righteous bullies (usually within the same person). The Watchtower builds such character.
Sorry you ever came into contact with them.

Electronic Frontier Foundation v Watch Tower Society
by Corney in[disclaimer: the headline is slightly misleading since the eff itself doesn't participate in the case, so read more below].
it's not a secret that during the last two years watchtower obtained nearly 40 dmca subpoenas requiring google, facebook, instagram, twitter, soundcloud, scribd, reddit and other isps to provide personal information of users that allegedly infringed the society's copyright.. since subpoena proceeding is ex parte, almost all the requests were granted.. but one of the affected users contacted, on advice of youtube's legal team, the electronic frontier foundation (eff), and the foundation found a law firm ready to represent him pro bono, namely garvey schubert barer:.
youtube's legal department emailed the user on or about july 10, 2018, five days before the subpoena's return date, stating that it would comply with the subpoena unless it received a file-stamped motion to quash "or other type of formal objection before july 20, 2018.

Thanks Comey
Couple pages of good arguments in the motions. Interesting to see the statements and approaches used by "legal" on both sides.
