This development only reinforces issues I have harped on here about the crippling effects of too much weakness of government at all levels, too much under the control of the all powerful constitutionally armored print and video mass media, even in normal times.
The Judiciary has also imposed, or simply joined local governments already moving in this direction themselves, imposing onerous, and now videoed, quasi judicial procedures and formalities, as well as restricting and requiring collegial board decisionmaking of many kinds to be done only during public videoed meetings.
The mass media routinely hacks into government sites to gain information, stories, dirt.
Meeting hackers, of any kind or background including foreign agents, take advantage of the defenselessness of global internet use of any kind, now especially focussing on virtual public meetings as prime new hack forums.
Officials cannot deliberate on how to respond or vote re law enforcement initiatives, or protests of all kinds, including radical elements among them on all sides except under the watchful eyes and ears of all, including those bent on disorder and crime who claim a right to be heard at their very public sunshine meetings, which the mass media as well as government media are filming or participating in.
