That's what confuses me. The majority of Groklaw's content comes from PACER filings, which are public(at a cost). To my knowledge, they never posted anonymous rumors, and instead focused solely on the facts of the cases they cared about as presented on court. And honestly, if it's comments they are worried about... those are hardly private.
- davorak 13y agoGroklaw never claimed it depended on anonymous tips. They claimed that it in general changes how people communicate and that the author is just as uncomfortable with an unauthorized person going through their email as if they were going through their underwear drawer.
