Hello, we've been tweeted a couple of times about the legality of someone using your tweets in an article, in research, etc.

The short answer is, it's complicated, but probably yes.

The long answer is that it really depends on the circumstances. Most privacy laws operate on the basis of "a reasonable expectation of privacy".

For example, if you live alone and said or did something in your home, you have a high expectation of privacy and that expectation is reasonable.

We're not entirely sure what you mean by "report".

If you mean why they don't bring lawsuits against people in other countries, that's a very complicated issue because it would depend on the laws in each specific country.

+ For example, many countries require the parties to be present in court or to testify, which would mean the victim (one of the members) would have to go to that country and possibly be there for month while the trial is happening.

What are the various types of Homicide?

In countries with a common law legal system (such as the US and Canada), there are generally three types of homicide charges, manslaughter, 2nd-degree murder or 1st-degree murder. In some states, there is also 3rd-degree murder.

+ *In this thread, we will be referencing general laws as well as those from Minnesota specifically. However, please be aware that there are variations in these laws depending on the state or country in which the alleged crime occurred.

Hey ARMY, we’re seeing a lot of angry and upset tweets at the publication released, so let’s talk about what defamation actually is. Keep in mind this is not legal advice! If you need legal advice, please engage your own attorney. Our tweets are FYI only. A THREAD! 1/20 The fine details of defamation law change from country to country; this thread explains defamation in a common law context, meaning, in a legal system originally based on English law. We will comment from a North American POV, since it was published by a US magazine. 2/20
