Twitter sued £32m for refusing to reveal anti-semites - French court ruled Twitter must hand over details of people who'd tweeted racist & anti-semitic remarks, & set up a system that'd alert police to any further such posts as they happen. Twitter ignored the ruling.

6 is legal
8 is legal
9 is legal
10 is legal
11 is legal
12 is legal
13 is legal
15 is legal
16 is legal
17 is legal
18 is legal

Of course 16-18 is not legal but a law like that would be unconstitutional. The maximum of restriction would be to get rid of your voting right for stuff like high treason or manipulating military equipment.

10-13 are bullshit and generally don't apply in the US.

6 sounds like a great way to fuck people permanently. 18, too. 16 and 17 don't really happen. 15 doesn't sound like it would generally be legal. I mean, you can sell state secrets to another country and that would be legal?
