But I'm here to tell you that PACER—Public Access to Court Electronic Records—is a judicially approved scam. The very name is misleading: Limiting the public's access by charging hefty fees, it has been a scam since it was launched and, barring significant structural changes, will be a scam forever.

Somewhat old but still relevant today.

    And what did you expect to get as a result when you let criminals to write the laws, for many centuries?

    Leave Australia out of this, you insensitive clod!
