Regulators around the world, are getting far more sophisticated in identifying these sort of issues Dub as IMO, some companies are providing some operators with cut-price stock to ensure that they urge others to buy. The ramping may be the first priority IMHO. I really am tired of some adults (I think they are) not understanding guidelines without appreciating the possibility of prosecution, as let's face it, the online investor group has in some way, replaced the trading floor.
Privacy would be a problem, but injunctions are simple as well as perhaps a better relationship between forum operators and ASIC. The ocassional fax wouldn't go astray and a test case must be on the table IMO to ensure credibility in the marketplace. That would sort them out.
It's beer and skittles most of the time, but sometimes, their is serious interest here with oodles of clout IMO.
