The one area of jurisprudence where the courts are better than the general public is on free speech, and I don't expect that to last, as most of the pro-free speech precedents were made in order to protect treasonous Communist subversives from getting their just desserts. So honestly just scrapping judicial review is probably the way to go.
@ArdainianRight I feel like free speech in general is like Roman ruins. It's still around, we still use it, but it's a product of an erased people and any maintenance will be in the direction of changing it drastically. What gave me this thought specifically is someone's proposal to burn the Koran to own the libs: that's not going to own the libs, that's going to lead to blasphemy laws, because the only defenders of free speech permitted in the public square are those who already support blasphemy laws for issues like the Holocaust, FBI stats, etc.
The open internet and its protocols are another Roman ruin. Anyone can escape from social media hell to post their own content on their own website? Not until
1. you gets DDOSed
2. cloudflare refuses to protect you
3. the EFF refuses to call cloudflare out on not protecting you
4. all other DDOS mitigators do likewise
5. if your datacenter doesn't kick you, your datacenter's peers do
6. if you flee to tor or similar, the devs start updating the relays to fight you

@apropos @ArdainianRight There are local solutions to DDoS protection like mod_security on Apache Webserver. nginx has something similar but I forgot what it was.
@xianc78 @ArdainianRight mod_security isn't a solution for 60Gbit/s of garbage hitting a <60Gbit/s pipe, and even if the pipe's large enough the data center isn't going to appreciate that. mod_security is a solution for layer 7 attacks that rely on the target site being incredibly inefficient
