anyway. Sue was getting harassed online. Horrible things were written about her. She runs a website about how parents can help parents reconnect with their teens. one lady didnt like something she advised. The lady was a victim of a cyber attack!!! she sued the lady and was wanted to just recoup her legal fees ~150K. the judge awarded her 11 mil~!! They wanted to set the example of how attacks on the internet could ruin someones life!! That is incredible! I am happy for her!
This lady had her life ruined!!!!
We have been online for 10yrs. Everyone is google-able! Be careful what you say about yourself! It could affect you getting a job!
If you see information posted about you you dont like
read the terms of service of the website. Use their verbiage. Write them and tell them this is abusive and defamation of character and you want it removed.
Sorry this was long...but good info
I was going to post about this too -- I so rarely ever see Rachel Ray but I did see this. If you want to watch here is the link the story Rachael Ray Show Preventing Cyber-slander

This also made me think about some of the things that have been posted about some breeders here on YT - very scary
