Juniper Networks Sues LR Message Boarders for Alleged Libel
Quote:Juniper Networks Inc. is taking a handful of Light Reading message board users to court, according to recent court filings.

The Sunnyvale, Calif., company filed a lawsuit in the California Superior Court of Santa Clara on December 14 claiming that it had been defamed and libeled by up to 10 persons unknown. These persons, referred to as "Does 1-10" in the court complaint (as in "John Doe," or anonymous), are being accused by Juniper of posting harmful statements about the company and its executives on Light Reading's message boards.

So what messages is Juniper most upset about? The complaint cites several messages, most of which allege that Juniper is bribing lawyers and spying on its employees.

Update: Juniper has dropped the libel suit

Quote:Juniper Networks Inc.  has dropped its case against several, yet-unidentified Light Reading message board users, according to court filings.

“We resolved the matter, so we dismissed the suit," says Juniper spokeswoman Susan Ursch, in an email response to Light Reading. "I have nothing further to add to this," her email continued.

Re: Juniper Networks Sues LR Message Boarders for Alleged Libel
Imagine if some ebayers filed against ebay's lieworld that they have been
defamed and libeled by a handful of posters on ebay's message boards.

Wonder if lieworld would GIVE EM UP so the ebayers could go after them
individually or pay off in a settlement?

After all they do have board posting rules and it is apparent that a handful
are allowed to continue to break those rules.
Some have in fact crossed the line several times and defamed others.

So who is libel? The board user or the people supposed to be moderating
the boards and enforce their usage polices?


Hmmmmmmmmm  :blinkie:

The courts say only the board user.
