Blackmail, extortion, defamation, libel
How would they proof that the original comment wasn't libel? I doubt the have cross refrenced commenters IP addresses with the numbers listed. And if you relay libel (especially with malicious intent) it is still libel or maybe even blackmail.
- milkshakes 14y agoit would appear that they are attempting to hide behind free speech (creating an "artwork"). i'm certainly not a lawyer but this seems pretty transparent
- codesuela 14y agoHere is another "artist" who claimed free speech[1] so calling yourself an artist is not blanket protection against prosecution. Also libel is not covered under free speech although I too ANAL.

- milkshakes 14y agomaybe they want to be taken to court, and that's part of the performance? i like art, but i don't understand postmodernism
- praptak 14y agoWhat if their database is empty?
- PeterisP 14y agoWell, then charging $10 to view it would clearly match the definition of fraud.
- praptak 14y agoYes, but it's hard to prove. And they could stuff it with a few fake numbers so it's not technically empty.
- solistice 14y agoaren't they charging 10$ to check for you whether your number is in the database, not 10$ for full database acess?
