The AC may be referring to results from the Planck observatory (see, e.g., planck.caltech.edu/publications2013Results.html), which put some constraints on the inflationary era. What is interesting is the results that were released today may not completely agree with the Planck data. It is too early to say if the disagreement is real or not.

Once again, rubbish.

There are decades of observational evidence that support the existence of dark matter. If you have any evidence that those observations are wrong, or have been interpreted incorrectly then feel free to present that evidence. You are making an extraordinary claim, that many years of research is wrong. You now need to provide evidence to back up your claim.

Again, rubbish.

There is evidence for dark matter from many areas of astronomy. Others have listed observational evidence and provided links to details. Follow them. I am not going to do your homework for you. Simply saying that something does not exist because you do not understand it, or because you do not want it to exist, or because you have a grudge against science is magical thinking.

Rubbish.

There is considerable observational evidence for both.

The solution is to bring the relevant laws into the 21st century, then judges will have the tools that they need to deal with people who do this sort of thing. Given the attention that this case is getting I suspect that the laws will be modernized very soon.

In the US if you are in a public place then you can be photographed (or videoed) without your consent and the photographer can do almost anything that he or she wants with the photographs. One of the few exceptions is if the photographers are using the pictures for commercial purposes, but even that is somewhat fuzzy. Perhaps the victims could claim that the photographers deliberately caused them emotional anguish, then they may be able to pursue a civil suit. Not a lawyer. Do not play one on tv. Consult real legal counsel.

The judges simple pointed out that under current law taking these pictures is legal. That is their job. What is needed is for the appropriate laws to be rewritten.

Whatever. It sounds like you have found an easy way to make a few dollars.

Dude. If you are being paid to post this sort of rubbish please contact me. I want in.

Ooh... Aren't you the clever one.

This is an incredibly stupid thing to do to someone who is recording what you are doing and uploading the recording to the great and mighty cloud in real time.

Do not try this in a stand your ground state.

That's right! Blame the victim.

Zombies of the Stratosphere.

No, its not. We have a reasonably good idea of the about of "visible" matter in the Galaxy because it is visible. Stars shine, and we can detect them right down to the hydrogen burning limit. Dust and gas clouds radiate at various wavelengths, and we can measure that too. We have a reasonably good idea of the amount of baryonic matter in the Galaxy. Even with generous uncertainties there is not enough to account for the Galactic rotation curve.
