[Paging Barbra Streisand!] Olive Garden threatens to sue satirical twitterer for tweet congratulating it for no longer selling AR-15s
https://boingboing.net/2018/03/02/ar-15s.html Counsel for Darden Restaurants, owners of the Olive Garden, sent a legal threat to the Seinfeld Current Day Twitter account over a tweet reading "respect to @olivegarden for no longer selling AR-15s at all their locations." The letter calls this "unlawful defamation" and "demands" that the tweet be deleted. This has sparked a hilarious twitter game in which people try to goad the Olive Garden into sending them C&D letters as well, using the #OliveGardenRetractions hashtag. - - - --Lauren-- Lauren Weinstein (lau...@vortex.com): https://www.vortex.com/lauren Lauren's Blog: https://lauren.vortex.com Google Issues Mailing List: https://vortex.com/google-issues Founder: Network Neutrality Squad: https://www.nnsquad.org PRIVACY Forum: https://www.vortex.com/privacy-info Co-Founder: People For Internet Responsibility: https://www.pfir.org/pfir-info Member: ACM Committee on Computers and Public Policy Google+: https://google.com/+LaurenWeinstein Twitter: https://twitter.com/laurenweinstein Tel: +1 (818) 225-2800 _______________________________________________ nnsquad mailing list https://lists.nnsquad.org/mailman/listinfo/nnsquad
