Yeah. The whole "porn site" thing may have been blown out of proportion. It apparently was like a shared cloud drive (or the equivalent back then) where the family shared "funny" images.
I'm not sure that the members of the current administration will be as into udder-oriented nudity (no offense @devincow.bsky.social ) as 'The Easy Rider' was [is?]
It was an open secret as far back as the early 2000’s when I was applying for clerkships. My con law professor, a former O’Connor clerk, relentlessly discouraged me from applying to Kozinski. At the time, he wouldn’t give me details, just said it wasn’t safe for a girl.
Vividly recall as a 1L in 2004 mentioning his name to a young prof who had clerked for another 9th Cir judge as an example of a conservative who seemed alright (he spoke to the interns at the ACLU SoCal office and was engaging) and the look she gave me of “oh absolutely the fuck not”

However, the later reveal of how Kozinski treated his female clerks: that was truly horrible and disgusting.
But the harassment stuff...
say wut?
