image for Analysis: Brian Kemp has purged over 300,000 voters from Georgia rolls

The investigation has accused Kemp of wrongly removing hundreds of thousands of legitimate voters from the state's voter rolls because they allegedly "left the state" or "moved from their congressional district."

Kemp used the controversial "exact match" program to purge nearly the voters from the rolls in over the last two years.

A coalition of state civil rights groups, including the New Georgia Project, sued Kemp this week over the blocked registrations. »

Don’t be surprised if every kid who gets pushed around has two new idols. »

Authored by techdirt.com

Studies have suggested that every broadcaster on the planet will likely have their own streaming service by 2022.

But instead of going back to cable, back in March we noted how users are just as likely to consider piracy.

If history is any indication, it will take another year or two for the industry to identify and admit this exclusivity parade is driving users back to piracy. »
