defamation suits suits and hc, page-135

"So you would be happy for anyone to say whatever they liked about you?"
.............................

They do anyway. Nothing I can or should do about it. Different people, different perceptions.

................................

"Thankfully I live in a country where the law makers believe otherwise."
................................

Defamation laws have hid a thousand crimes.

.................................

"If people and companies including HC don't like our laws, (that are designed to protect you and I) they are encouraged to go elsewhere."
.................................

Funnily enough, that is what HC are considering. Let's then see how easy it will be for ambulance chasing lawyers to sue HC or posters then.
Another question is whether those laws do in fact protect you and I. Who is being protected by restricting free flow of information, true, untrue, conditional or indeterminate?
Do we become more discriminating by being surrounded by bland and vague information or do we become better at discerning truth by finding our way through a whole range of opinion.
