inside information

Read a random definition: sicut alias

A quick definition of inside information:

Inside information refers to information about a company's financial or market situation that is not available to the public, but is obtained from a source within the company or someone who has a duty to keep the information confidential. This information can be used to make trades in the company's stock, which is known as insider trading. Insider trading is illegal and can result in fines and imprisonment. It is important to only use information that is available to the public when making investment decisions.

A more thorough explanation:

Definition: Information about a company's financial or market situation obtained not from public disclosure, but from a source within the company or a source that owes the company a duty to keep the information confidential. This is also known as insider information.

Example: If a person who works for a company knows that the company is going to release a new product that will make the company's stock price go up, and they buy stock in the company before the news is made public, that is insider trading.

Explanation: The person had access to information that was not available to the public, and they used that information to make a profit. This is illegal because it gives the person an unfair advantage over other investors who do not have access to the same information.

Insider trading is a serious crime that can result in fines and even jail time. It is important for companies to have policies in place to prevent insider trading and for employees to understand the consequences of sharing confidential information.

I mean, idk how it's possible to end birth right citizenship without amending the constitution because to me the 14th amendment is pretty clear about it.
ross ulbricht tried to hire a hitman to kill 5 people
i am not that sympathetic to him

@KnowledgeableRitzyWasp: That might have been an FBI agent. It was most likely him and he was most likely doing it to retrieve stolen funds that corrupt FBI agents stole, but yeah moral gray area but me personally, cool with hitmen. It's not like it is uncommon to hire hitmen. I don't think the action itself is necessarily wrong but the intent behind it can be.

Like, Boeing whistblowers being killed by hitmen = wrong but a guy hiring hitmen to retrieve stolen funds = good to me.

@Dkk: Yeah, for sure. My guess is it'll go to SCOTUS and it'll be 8-1 or 7-2, saying that EO was unconstitutional.
