And exactly how does 'letting them sue you' save money? Lawyers cost money no matter which side of a case they are on.
In reality though it would be a foolish company or individual to sue you if they had absolutely no case, and if they did you could always represent yourself, or better get a lawyer to defend you on a no-win-no-fee basis. If you have the facts, ie the contract, the "comments in the code" etc and you use conventional journalistic standards in reporting them, you should be on fairly safe ground. Of course if you want to play really safe - you'd be better taking it as a learning exercise - who to trust who not that sort of thing. On the other hand if as is often the case you really do not want people to get away with that sort of thing, you are angry, and you want to forewarn other people, simply letting it slide under the carpet may not be what you are after. I still think there should be some sort of web site for publishing these sort of stories. Companies and individuals would think twice about ripping someone off, whereas as it is at the moment they know they are likely to get away with it. The counter problem of course is spurious claims - but these would be subject to libel in the normal way for any publication. _______________________________________________ use-revolution mailing list use-revolution@lists.runrev.com Please visit this url to subscribe, unsubscribe and manage your subscription preferences: http://lists.runrev.com/mailman/listinfo/use-revolution
