Sounds like a net positive for SI. If I read your post correctly, you're saying that the big firms are worried about too much dissemination of information to the average individual. Sure there are bashers and hypesters on these boards. If you look around long enough, they end up being the noise. There are some truly talented and insightful individuals in this community.

Nothing's wrong with shorters or people who go long and believe a stock is great. I think the real problem is people attempting to deceive investors or manipulate stocks. I don't think you need SI for that, and, in fact, the free flow of information can often make such things more difficult.

Thanks,
Mike

Silicon Investor would have no liability in any such litigation. It is the individual who is being accused of market manipulation that could potentially have some liability under certain circumstances. That is a very, very small portion of the people who might post on SI. It would not have any material effect, I would argue, on revenues for subscriptions or ads. This should not be a concern for GNET.
