Ah, so tough on the people who are being adversely affected, libeled and attacked? We tell them that it is a risk we (sorry, they?) have to run. A fact of life 9for them)?
Well, we could give up, shut down the project, and all go and do something else.
And how does that argument help?
It would solve libel issues.
Well, if that's the best colution you can come up with, fine. Me, I'm hoping some blue-sky thinking, flexibility and willingness to change and we can be more imaginative. But if we are not up for that, then perhaps I'll take your option.
Anyway, my concern was ethical not legal. The foundation being successfully sued is not the worst case scenario.
