A "former boxer", Gary Dobry, learned this the hard way when he posted pseudonymous messages on a stock bulletin board accusing a business executive of questionable stock transactions and dealing with "known felons." The executive filed a "John Doe" suit that allowed him to issue subpoenas to get Dobry's actual identity, and then sued him for spreading "false and defamatory information" about him. Although Dobry claimed that he had gotten his information from a fellow Internet poster whom he "mistakenly believed was trustworthy," he was the one who paid the price: a public apology, and a settlement that will make him immediately liable for $1 million in damages if he ever posts another word about the executive or his business. net4tv.com Zwebner and Dobry - a perfect match.
