So that's the best example I have seen in a while.
BLP won't solve that problem.
This is exactly the kind of negative information without valid sources
that I am strongly encouraging people to remove on sight. So, except
for unrealistic definitions of the word "solve", I think BLP does in
fact help a great deal.
Saying that somebody's daughter is attending a prestigious
educational institution isn't obviously, intrinsically, negative,
without more context about the complex political issues involved in
this case. And determining that the sources given here are invalid
takes a bit of (unoriginal?) research. Thus, this is the sort of
thing that can easily survive a superficial look, even under a regime
requiring strict sourcing of negative information on living persons.
