Floydie, you seem to have missed my question from yesterday:
<< Are you just implying that the ZSUN principals are in the Mafia, or are you saying that outright?
Please be very clear on this point for us. >>
Interesting article in today's paper: tennessean.com
Here's an excerpt: << For example, Nashville-based restaurant company Shoney's Inc. recently became so concerned about postings on a Yahoo! message board dedicated to discussion of the company, it filed a lawsuit this month seeking the identities of three anonymous posters. It claims the posters' statements on the board, which has no connection to the company, were damaging.
Other cases are turning up nationally, including one in which Oregon-based barter club ITEX Corp. is seeking the identities of "John Does 1-100." Similar cases have been filed by Philip Services Corp., Raytheon Co. and Wade Cook Financial Corp.
The court battles pit free-speech rights in the Internet era against the rights of people and companies not to be unlawfully disparaged, especially with anonymity.
"You start from a context of two legitimate, yet sometimes irreconcilable competitive interests," said Robert E. Boston, a member of Waller Lansden Dortch & Davis. He manages the Nashville law firm's dispute resolution practice.
"The law requires a public company to disclose certain things, but not everything," he said.
But disgruntled people who want to exercise "not just their right to free speech, but their right to vent, will sometimes go too far," he added. >>
Think about it.
Regards
