Default Re: Suit against AFF allowed to go forward

One of the claims allowed to stand is the alleged violation of the federal Communications Decency Act.

Quote:
"The woman charges the bogus profile – using her first name and postal zip code as the username – was posted sometime in 2005 on AdultFriendFinder.com, LesbianPersonals.com and Swingers.AdultFriendFinder.com, unbeknownst to her.

The profile remained online for at least 15 months, until the woman discovered it in September 2006, and persuaded the companies to take it down, her suit states. Alternative versions of the profile continued to be published on affiliated sites even after the original was taken down, however, she charges.

The woman learned of the profile after hearing that people in the community were gossiping about it, her suit states.

The misimpressions resulting from the profile, her suit charged, "have been devastating to plaintiff, her reputation, her family and family relationships, and her professional and social standing; and have caused her immeasurable and irreparable pain and suffering, which is ongoing."

A lawyer for the companies, Ira Rothken of Novato, Calif., said Laplante's ruling "would have a chilling effect" on a wide variety of Internet services and content providers, but added he expects the issues will be further sorted out on appeal.
Not really sure how being able to post somebody's information while it being patently false would have a "chilling effect" on freedom of speech, as Mr. Rothken is implying.
