This is what comes of working on two computer screens at once, when you are really, really a computer klutz.. of course it is me.
People tell me my style of writing, which developed from attending a very correct and grammar-driven school up there in Canada, is definitive, even without the apparent ability to always remember to enter the proper info when I post, so that's helpful at least in keeping plumb and square on standing behind for what I say.
But the questions of anonymity and tracing methods are of great interest, as is the very recent post pertaining to what is the scope of "freedom of speech".
There are in fact limitations to such freedoms: issues of "shouting fire in a crowded theater", the ever growing exception for what might be construed in a variety of ways as "terroristic threats", and specific or semi-specific threats to do harm to a person or group of persons. As well as the idea of conspiracy to bring any of these things about, by, say, allowing them to be posted on your web site.
I don't know how any of these relate to the suit that someone said concerns this site. Perhaps someone else does. I do know that it costs a lot to go to court even if you aren't found guilty, so it pays not to say dangerous, threatening things (I'm not talking about profanity, rudeness, vulgarity, I'm talking about threats, even made broadly).
Could anyone reasonable disagree with that?
