That’s an interesting read. I find it hard to take a position. I don’t like the court orders to reveal the poster’s identity, but I don’t like anonymous defamatory posts either.
Anonymity is both the best and worst thing about the Internet. As Rory says, legal situation may need to be clarified. Oh great, more laws.

It definitely demonstrates that we may need new laws for this issue.
