On what grounds are they suing? Especially if you mention their name in a negative blog article, I'd really like to know that. If anyone can provide me with details, please reply or contact me, am curious due to legal background.
Edit: Google for "elite dating" now brings this on 4th place. Awesome.
- pyre 17y agoThey would probably sue for defamation or libel. At least in the USA, the merits of a such a suit are beside the point. The point is to intimidate you with the threat of a lengthy and expensive legal process, at the end of which you might only end up with the consolation that a judge thought that you were right, but you are now tens of thousands of dollars in debt due to the legal costs of the trial. Outside of the USA, it's even easier to win a libel suit, at least in the UK; I'm not 100% sure about elsewhere.
