Internet Defamation Case!
Well it looks like those Internet tough guys who like to call people out from behind a key board without substantiated facts may have their day in court and lose big time! A jury awarded $11.3 million because someone was called a "con artist" and a "fraud". Better be careful what you say boys...

Re: Internet Defamation Case!
Does that mean we can't use these anymore?

Re: Internet Defamation Case!
The truth is an absolute defense to defamation: So the frauds and con artists out there should be aware as well. All their activities would come into evidence at a civil trial. In addition, the defendant never showed up for this trial and the judge just awarded the claim to the plaintiff without any opposition.

Re: Internet Defamation Case!
What are the odds that the plaintiff will ever see a dime?
