A bill of attainder is a legislative act that declares a person or a group of people guilty of a crime without the benefit of a trial. It is a violation of the principles of due process and is considered unconstitutional in many democratic countries.

There are two main types of bills of attainder: 1. Bills of pains and penalties: These bills impose punishment on individuals or groups without going through the judicial system. They can include fines, imprisonment, or other forms of punishment. 2. Bills of attainder proper: These bills declare individuals or groups guilty of a crime and impose punishments such as loss of property, exile, or even death.

Love the editing.
Love the editing. But saving is PIA at times when using the watermarks. A lot of extra steps. Also would be nice to have a compression function.
