The U.K. has repeatedly tried to impose its censorship mandates on Americans and American companies but one legal mind is fighting back to end such international overreach. Lawyer and senior fellow at the Adam Smith Institute Preston Byrne, proposed a new legal doctrine that would protect the First Amendment rights of Americans, and potentially the rights of those living under authoritarian regimes around the world. In an op-ed for The Blaze, Byrne argued that the laws of the country in which a website or platform operates should be the laws that govern any activity on that website. If widely accepted, this new legal philosophy could be a game-changer for global free speech.  [The story continues on MRCFreeSpeechAmerica.org]

A scientist who helped identify a new butterfly species said it would be named after Iryna Zarutska to "immortalize" her memory.Harry Pavulaan, the president and director of the International Lepidoptera Survey, said that he's still emotional when thinking about the stabbing death of the Ukrainian woman, allegedly at the hands of a repeat criminal.'This will outlast most other tributes because it's a living organism. Her name will be immortalized as a butterfly.'"When I saw the story break," said Pavulaan, "I'm 70 years old, and I'm still driven to tears."Pavulaan told ABC News that the butterfly had been first spotted in South Carolina by researcher Ronald Gatrelle in 1985 but that it had not been officially named. Pavulaan himself collected specimens of the insect in 2018. It took several years to determine that it was the "first known hybrid introgression" for the species.While it had been initially named something else, Pavulaan decided to honor Zarutska after seeing the surveillance videos of her death."This will outlast most other tributes because it's a living organism. Her name will be immortalized as a butterfly," he added.He added that he had been in contact with Zarutska's family, and they had told him they were hopeful the honor would help them find closure about her death.
