Con, what if someone died following bad medical advice in your posts? Would you and Goanet be partly responsible for their death? What if they lived in the USA and the family sued in the USA for financial damages? Medical claims can runs in millions of dollars. Merely defending a lawsuit in the USA costs thousands of dollars even if the defendant is found innocent.
I am not sure if a blanket waiver that the material posted in the links is the responsibility of the author and poster when it can be shown there was no qualification or attempt by the poster to ascertain the veracity of the information, or as in your case, a dismissal when pointed out by a medical doctor that the information is often bogus. I am curious if you have considered these issues and the impact on your personal financial assets should the unfortunate happen. How intellectually challenging and controversial will your posts look like to an unsympathetic jury?
