Supreme Court leaves in place court victory for PETA over North Carolina ag-gag law_我的网站

一 |     WASHINGTON -- The Supreme Court on Monday rejected North Carolina's appeal in a dispute with animal rights groups over a law aimed at preventing undercover employees at farms and other workplaces from taking documents or recording video.The justices left in place a legal victory for People for the Ethical Treatment of Animals in its challenge to the law, which was enacted in 2015. PETA has said it had wanted to conduct an undercover investigation at testing laboratories at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill but feared prosecution under the law.An appeals court ruled that the law could not be enforced against PETA — and likely others in similar situations — when its undercover work is being performed to conduct newsgathering activities.The law is similar to so-called state ag-gag laws — aimed at gagging undercover activists who record footage of the animal agriculture industry — that have been struck down by several courts around the country over free speech concerns. The Supreme Court has so far refused to weigh in.。    Short videos posted by a Nigerian sales representative in eastern China's Zhejiang Province are helping a Chinese farm machinery producer reach overseas customers, with one TikTok post attracting more than 1.2 million views.     Onyekwelu Patrick Chinazam, known by his Chinese name Zheng Zewei, works for Zhejiang Jiying Intelligent Agricultural Machinery Equipment in Changshan county. He is responsible for expanding the company's overseas business and introducing its products to international customers in fluent Chinese.        Zheng focuses mainly on Southeast Asian markets, including Malaysia and Laos. He sells up to 16 machines a month to Malaysia.    He also runs a TikTok account featuring demonstrations of the company's products, including a tracked transporter designed for mountainous terrain. The account has attracted more than 20,000 followers and become an important channel for overseas customers to learn about Chinese farm machinery.    Zheng's connection with China began at a Confucius Institute in Nigeria. Although he studied real estate, he took up Chinese to improve his career prospects. He came to China in 2019 to pursue a master's degree in international Chinese language education in Qufu, Shandong province, and joined the farm machinery company in late 2020. He moved with the company to Changshan in 2023.    Zheng said China's well-developed shipping logistics and efficient cross-border trade services have helped smart farm machinery reach more overseas markets. He said he hopes to bring China's agricultural mechanization experience back to Nigeria.                    。
