Good post... I don't argue the fact the B.S alone can move a stock up or down like wildfire. We have all watched it happen a hundred times and most of us have been suckered in at least once in our trading life by hype/lies (myself included e.g. Hawkeye Gold a few years back). The longer you trade the better your B.S indicator works and the faster you can separate fact from hype/lies/pumps/etc.

Should a company go after the individuals posting negative campaigns? - absolutely, if it is justified

I agree that groups like the one mentioned in the last new release deserve to be punished since they are the scum of the earth. However if I post that I think a director is scum and a crook for repricing his options after a huge market crash that was caused because of his complete incompetence should I be held liable for slander? By the rule of law I could be sued for such a statement. Do I not voice my opinion on the internet or do I just watch every word I type?

I just have a really problem with how they are going to enforce these new "rules" of the internet. There is a very fine wire between free speech and enforcement. I just don't want to see the hammer swing to far in the wrong direction.

Best Regards
KEITH
