Brad - under what circumstances would SI release the identity of a poster? This post at Yahoo inspired me to ask post.messages.yahoo.com@m2.yahoo.com The 'PHV vs Internet Posters' dispute #reply-4780544 is very similar to the 'Fleming vs Davis' dispute #reply-4693975 imho - the respective parties live and work very close to each other, and in each case the party with the deep pockets has threatened libel suits. In the Philip case the area of Hamilton, Ontario is noted for strong-arm mobster tactics, and of course the power of TSE management is extensive among the investor/trader community. As it happens, I am among those who strongly believe that the privilege you give us of allowing us to post without broadcasting our identity and location permits us to speak our minds without fear of physical or economic retribution by those too cowardly to respond in the King's English here in the light of day. Clearly you would have to reveal identities to a court order - but whose court? Would it have to be a US court, since you are based in the US? Any thoughts you would have on this matter would be appreciated ... cheers ... marcos
