If OTRS is so difficult to deal with that a wealthy celebrity can't
pay someone $1000 to navigate it, you've got much lower hanging fruit
than ICorrect to deal with.

I find that rather hard to believe, though.  At $20/hour that's 50
hours.  That'd have to be a pretty stupid secretary/publicist/whatever
not to be able to figure out to click on "contact us", then "report a
problem with an article" then "article about you" then
"[email protected]" within 50 hours.

Why not?  Because you already know they could?

$1000 to navigate OTRS and fix a problem simple enough that you're
just going to take the celebrity's word on it?  I'll do it for $200.
And I'm not even banned.
