RE: Semi-OT: Wiki Advice From List

[Ziots, Edward]

Yep if there is slander, or personally defamnation ( which it looks like
there is, from what you have said) then Free Speech 1St Amendment isn't
applicable, they had the right free speech, but ultimately there words,
or postings can be used against them in a court of law, to include
lawful search and seizure of said electronic device that was used to
send such information (computer, PDA, etc etc) and probably through a
forensic analysis there will be enough information to win the case and
get the legal damages you might be entitled, but against consulting with
a lawyer that specializes in this area of expertise is going to be you
best bet.

I'd email the site admin and discuss it with them.

 

Depending on how damaging it is, you may have a suit. The 1st Amendment
only protects the freedom of speech to such an extent. Once it crosses
the line into damaging, it ends there. If you want, send the link to me
off-list and I'll give you my opinion on rather or not you should
consult a lawyer.

Subject: Semi-OT: Wiki Advice From List

 

Hope everyone had a nice weekend. 

I am looking for some advice from the list regarding posts on a wiki.
Apparently someone is not very happy with me (not sure why, don't even
know who) and has engaged in some character-assassination of me on a
public wiki. I don't really want to post the link here publicly, as I
don't want to improve the Google PageRank or anything like that, but I
can send the link privately. Safe to say the stuff posted is pretty
hurtful to me, and my fiance who is also mentioned. I can take it, but I
would really like the content about her removed. 

What I am wondering is if I should just ignore this (hard to, but I can
try), or if there is anything I can do. Attempts I have made to remove
the content have been marked as "vandalism" and the pages have been
restored. Anyone have advice? 

Thanks... 

Jeff

I emailed you offline Jeff, hit me back and well discuss, you might have
some legal options to find out who is doing this, and get it cease and
desist. There are legal precedents for cyber bullying, that have come
down, and some pretty tough fines and sentences ( including jail time)
that have been assessed.
