IANAL, but often it is not extorsion when you are the victim:
Give me money or I will tell the public that you did me wrong -> not extorsion
Give me money or I will tell the public that you did someone else wrong -> extorsion
I believe that the litmus test is whether you are entitled to a compensation or not.
Either can be defamation though.
- quantumBerry 5y agoThat explanation does make sense. But Shitlassian guy did talk about things that were done wrong to other people, so I'm not sure he'd be able to pass this test.
- afiori 5y agoI would think of those as supporting evidence. In my previous classification it would be extorsion to say "pay me or I will add those things to my accusations" but not to say "pay me or I will drag you in the mud as much as possible", that is it would matter whether you keep them bundled together or not.
