"The California Supreme Court ruled Monday that bloggers and participants in Internet bulletin board groups cannot be sued for posting defamatory statements made by others.

In deciding a case closely watched by free speech groups, the court said a federal law gives immunity from libel suits not only to Internet service providers, like AOL, but also to bloggers and other users of their services."

It will be good to watch the complete episode once again.


Thanks for making this post. This is a legal armor for people posting in the internet. Although people say their true stories about some companies, but it dismays when a company threats for posting about their business. Everyone knows what kind of business they are running, but they don't want anyone to post it online. For this reason, the threats are made to them.

People don't be afraid because you have the freedom of speech. Your experience can save one falling into the wrong hands and hopefully the legal authorities will make all efforts to shut down the company doing illegal business.
