A quick definition of cyberpayment:

Term: Cyberpayment

Definition: Cyberpayment is when you use the Internet to send money to someone else. You can do this through a special service that helps you make the payment. It's like sending money through the computer instead of using cash or a check.

Term: Cyberpiracy

Definition: Cyberpiracy is when someone tries to make money by using a famous name or brand on their website. They might use a name that is very similar to the real brand to trick people into buying from them instead. This is not fair to the real brand and can be against the law.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Cyberpayment refers to the transfer of money over the internet, usually through a payment service.

Example: When you buy something online and pay for it using your credit card or PayPal, you are making a cyberpayment.

Explanation: Cyberpayment is a convenient way to pay for goods and services online. It is a secure and fast way to transfer money from one account to another. Cyberpayment is used by millions of people every day to buy things online, pay bills, and transfer money to friends and family.

Definition: Cyberpiracy refers to the act of registering a well-known name or mark (or one that is confusingly similar) as a website's domain name, usually for the purpose of deriving revenue.

Example: A person registers the domain name "McDonalds.net" and uses it to sell fast food products that are not affiliated with the real McDonald's restaurant chain.

Explanation: Cyberpiracy is a form of trademark infringement that can mislead consumers and harm the reputation of a well-known brand. It can also be used to generate revenue by selling products or services that are not associated with the brand. Cybersquatting is a common form of cyberpiracy where a person registers a domain name that is similar to a well-known brand or trademark and then tries to sell it back to the brand owner for a profit. Cyberpiracy is illegal and can result in legal action against the perpetrator.

Morning

Gecko, I feel pretty good. Two of the RC passages had really tough inference questions -- hoping I narrowed down my answer choices correctly
10:38
Very happy with LR other than having to guess on a couple questions cuz of time
10:42
i have a question about my personal statement. in my activism for the hospitality workers' union, i organized and spoke up in favor of stronger regulations on airbnb because the unregulated spread of airbnb throughout LA was inflating housing costs for workers and threatening their job security. do you think it's too divisive to mention regulating airbnb? idk

I wrote mine about how all activists should be consolidated into a large smelting pot and refined down to a viscous goo

Expecting a lot of rejections though

I'm sure you'll get a full ride to a few schools :P
11:11
The impression I get is most schools try not to judge based on the political implications of what you write about. They probably care more that you saw a problem and tried to fix it. That seems like a great thing to write a PS about @chowie
11:18
Besides, if a school didn’t let you in for trying to fix a problem you saw in your community, that doesn’t say great things about your school’s culture (assuming the thing you did showed good common sense judgment ofc)
11:19
That school’s* culture
11:23
Thanks Howl you're right :D I def talked about solving problems in my PS
12:03
@HowlEngineer: what's your dream school

12:08
"Have you applied for admission to [school] in a prior year" I applied in Oct. of the 23-24 cycle, should I put 23 or 24 as the year I applied?
MildChiller
12:09
Bcuz 2023 is when I technically applied but I applied for admissions in 2024
12:14
2024 cuz that's when you would've been admitted
I agree with Howl
12:19
Gecko what's ur dream school
Hard to say. I'm pretty firmly committed to the philly area so probably temple or villanova
Also relatively debt averse so I'd have to get a good scholarship from BC or Fordham to want to go but that's not very likely for me
Any advice? lol
[] baddestbunny
12:25
what’s a good scholarship for you? what would make BC or Fordham worth it?
12:25
Hmmmm let me think
[] baddestbunny
12:25
fordham’s max aid they give is 45k per year
Bunny I can possibly get a 75%+ scholarship from villanova or temple, and I'd be moving back in with my parents if I went there so I'd have near-zero COL. It'd be really hard to beat that
I would prefer BC over Fordham just because I like boston more, but I'm expecting a WL there tbh
I would maybe consider BC with $ but I don't know how to decide if a better biglaw chance is worth the COL + higher tuition
12:50
How do I know if my status checkers are properly linked
12:59
@ChowieBean: right now, Michigan, but there are several that come close. How about you?
13:05
@Law01: I haven't gotten the status checkers to work at all. When I sent an email to the LSData folks the other week, they said they were working on fixing them
13:10
but I think "Last Checked" would change from "Never" to something else
