Did you know! US federal legal filings are publicly available via PACER, but cost money. The RECAP extension (https://free.law/recap) uploads any PACER downloads you make to https://www.courtlistener.com/recap/ where they're freely available. Also, if your PACER balance is under $30 in a quarter, it's written off. If everyone who reads this uploaded $29 of stuff to RECAP every quarter, way more material in the public interest would be publicly available. Is there any way to organise this?

@jeff It all seems like lighthearted fun but then someone grows up to think that blockchains might actually solve real problems and everyone in high school refuses to talk to them

@mjg59 this amount of reaction to a single word is why the topic literally will never die. some people have some kind of Blockchain derangement syndrome, you dont tho. i have seen people post 5 paragraph long tangents in response to a reply that literally is just "blockchain!".it's madness but it's magical too.

@mjg59 I have an account, but have never used it. I would be happy to join this endeavor if someone if willing to organize it.

@mjg59 if a comprehensive and current catalogue is maintained, then theoretically yes. Would the operator of PACER introduce counter-measures to such "crowd- scraping"?

@mjg59 i've wanted to download stuff from pacer a few times, but i've always assumed that i wouldn't be able to pay for it even if i wanted to due to not being in the US
