Mostly horseshit clickbait. They are both in a lower security dormitory style lockup at the same holding facility e.g. large room with a lot of bunk beds.

...Combs began living in the same unit as Bankman-Fried and sleeping in a “dormitory-style” room with a number of other defendants last week after he was arrested...

Do you have a working GUI OneDrive Linux client?

I'm going to need you to actually quote which part of my comment you're responding to.

As far as I can tell, what you wrote has exactly nothing to do with anything that I said.

At no point did I mention laws, or legal loopholes.

And I certainly never mentioned anything about the United States, or the legal liability of Twitter, except as in response to your comment.

I think you're confusing my acknowledgment of the daily reality of a country that is currently divided between 3 and 5 major and minor factions, all in various states of civil conflict, with being something else entirely.

I wasn't providing any opinion, or analysis, on the legality from Twitter's perspective. I certainly wasn't making any comparisons to laws in the United States and Yemen, or anything else that you've been talking about since your first comment.

I would make the "duh no shit this is clickbait" observation if the BBC ran yet another story about how kids are selling drugs on Snapchat or Instagram.

You mean the first three paragraphs describing a few ads on Twitter for weapons?

Followed by the BBC, quoting other British "NGO" organizations, trying to rally people to support additional actions against a group that Britain currently engaged in military actions against? Yes, I read that as well.

The article reads like two separate articles pasted together by a moron. The only connective tissue between the Twitter ads, and the Houthis, was that the weapons traders lived an area controlled by them. News flash, the Houthis control a majority of the country.

So again, in a country that has had an active civil war since 2014, it's not surprising that people are selling weapons anywhere and everywhere, online, and off.
