When the big guns come out, must be something to it. The DMCA's "safe harbor" on copyright was the last time Google, et al, united.
Now they come to the rescue of TheDirty versus "that cheerleader".
Sarah Jones became the subject of postings that she claims were false, and she has sued.
The People vs Larry Flynt? Maybe. But the fear that a loss for TheDirty (home of Anthony Weiner, well, you know) could put liability on all online "news" groups.
How about that? Some old fashioned got to have a name and an address, maybe even a call back number, to put your letter to the editor out there.
Right after the Ed O'Bannon suit, this could be the most important legislation impacting college sports.
