I received this today. This annoys me. It's SPAM, yes I know that.
But it's the attitude of the idiot who wrote it that bothers me.
And knowing that Link Archives get checked by people form time to time, I
felt this might be a good place to put the document, and discuss the
ramifications to individuals who frequently abuse the Internet to try and
blacken other people's names.
Isn't this just the wrong thing to do?
Apart from the legal aspects of slander and defamation, the reality is that
there has been no court case, the writer hasn't even commenced proceedings
and yet is trying to blacken people's names. Right or Wrong, Fraud or Not,
the issue is the manner.
Someone is going to say that I do it with my Anti web sites, and sure, in a
way I suppose that's true. But at least I put BOTH sides of the story and
documents and video and phone calls online. Even if sometimes I get a bit
hot under the collar! I give everything possible to allow people to make
their own judgement. Not merely my opinion.
