this has nothing to do with real life. you're arguing the case on its merits. the defendants will need real lawyers to make those arguments at the summary judgment and/or trial stage, and real lawyers cost real money to get to those stages. those who own homes probably have homeowners insurance and they should contact their insurers ASAP. those who are not homeowners... are screwed.

I support free speech 100%, but you should not be able to say those things -- completely unverified -- on a public message board about a private person. She had no opportunity to effectively respond. And just the posting was devastating, true or false. Nobody should be able to inflict harm like that without any opportunity for the person to seek redress.

According to the WSJ article, they are claiming that they couldn't get good summer associate positions because of the attention from this site. Now if that is in the complaint (I haven't read it yet) won't they have to prove causation there which means getting the hiring committees from all those firms on the stand to show that it was a "But For" cause or substantial factor? This is assuming they get past all the other hurdles in this case. Seems like there are a number of defenses that are glaringly obvious that the professors are missing.

I have a feeling this is going to turn out just like the Pentagon recruiting case. Every law professor thinks this has merit, but even the most liberal judges in real world law laugh them out of court.

No - that doesn't shock me at all, but it's not relevant to this situation.

Do you really think that private locker room talk is the same as google-bombing someone with rape threats and STD allegations? Sure, guys say things all the time. Broadcasting things like this to a person's family, acquaintances and future employers is not just a case of guys being guys. They're getting exactly what they deserve.

It's a little relevant, I think. Everyone of the posters, except one, did not intentionally broadcast (or "google-bomb", as you like to call it) anything to the public. Xoxohth can feel like you're in private just having fun with friends, and it's easy to forget that you're actually in public and that what you are saying is being stored.

All I'm saying is that none of the guys said anything that you won't hear from a of regular guys if you spend some time with them, including rape threats and STD allegations.

I love how now so many people are not so quick to say "yea, screw GTO, they all deserve this." Amazing how fast things change.

I wonder if the cool guys with cool haircuts will be next.

is the fact that rachmiael (sp?) is not a defendant in the suit, along with the fact that the suit addresses said administrator numerous times, evidence that indeed means:

GTO = rachmiael = jarret cohen = anthony ciolli

this was my first question. i've got a good idea for part of an amicus. are people brave enough to help? am i?

This is not legal advice. I do not support xo, or the defendants. On information and belief, I have not defamed anyone or violated copyrights.
