I find it very depressing that you could be doing something as mundane as using the restroom or having a conversation that can catch someone's attention and it could lead to an event like this one. We are in a time where privacy could be considered a privilege.

Whether they were interested in each other romantic-wise, Rosey Blair brought unnecessary attention to these two individuals' life and invaded their whole privacy completely.

Lantagne notes that if memes are considered a form of communication, they are also subject to the limits placed on speech including the rights of others to privacy.
Some memes tend to go over the line. As mentioned in this article, some tend to affect an individual's privacy and even worse, they could affect their mental health.

When memes or the subjects of a meme are used for commercial purposes without permission, the meme creator may sue, as the effect of the commercial use on the market value of the original meme usually prevents a finding of fair use. In 2013, the owners of the cats featured in the “Nyan Cat” and “Keyboard Cat” memes won a lawsuit against Warner Bros. and 5th Cell Media for respectively distributing and producing a video game using images of their cats.
Big corporations use other creators' work more often than we think. It is unreal to think that people's work can be stolen from the internet easily and sometimes it could be hard to prove. Fortunately, these two cases were able to win their lawsuit.

But someone who sends pipe bombs to Democrats; plows through a crowd of anti-racism protesters in Charlottesville, Va.; or shoots up a church in Charleston, S.C., will not face domestic terrorism charges.
I find this very interesting and outraging. How would it be possible that hate acts such as the ones described here cannot be categorized as terrorism? When you look up the definition of terrorism you find that it is the unlawful use of violence and intimidation, especially against civilians, in the pursuit of political aims. Why we are not charging these criminals with terrorism is beyond me.

This is with no doubt a clear proof, that the coffee sector is indeed a true motor for the development of rural economies; if only the value of the harvest, which is $5,2 billion could be redistributed as an income, between the 550.000 + families that inhabit in the 595 municipalities of the country. Despite the importance of the information quoted, I believe this number could be much higher, if we include, all the thousands of independent coffee growers who are emerging across the entire country plus the contributors of the 3 phases of coffee - Farming/Harvesting - Production - Commercialization.
The coffee market holds an important place in several developing countries such as Brazil, Vietnam, Colombia, El Salvador, etc.
