Once More... a farce in many parts. A comedy in others.

Dot com files $15M defamation

Posted on April 5th, 2002

Dot com files $15M defamation complaint against mailing list members. Worse than the fact that businesses still think they can get away with shit like this, they apparently can: “‘I have three kids and bills to pay,’ says one defendant who settled. ‘It’s terrible when you believe in something so strongly, but you have to look at the reality of it, which is that I couldn’t afford my own defense.’ As part of the settlement, she turned over the rights to her domain. Other defendants had to run banners on their sites promoting Pets Warehouse.”
