SLED Posted November 21, 2008 Share Posted November 21, 2008 fine if you like living on the edge...........better hope they don't get a case of depression or worse, suicide (happens all the time) cause you'll be spending the better part of the next couple of years paying lawyers to keep you out of jail and away from bubba!!

Adz2332 Posted November 21, 2008 Author Share Posted November 21, 2008 Totally agree!! But as a lawyer said its freedom of speach. But surely there is a difference between freedom of speach and straight out slander! I mean where does defimation of charactor come into freedom of speach?

Damo_R34 Posted November 21, 2008 Share Posted November 21, 2008 Internet stuff is hard to prosecute over, unless you have flat out evidence like a HD full of illegal porn. The guy that runs that site has it hosted through an American Provider, so complies to USA law, not Australian. Smart eh? something like www.whosadog.com (which doesnt work) Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/245813-ex-gf-websites/#findComment-4275491 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dohmar Posted November 21, 2008 Share Posted November 21, 2008 Internet stuff is hard to prosecute over, unless you have flat out evidence like a HD full of illegal porn. The guy that runs that site has it hosted through an American Provider, so complies to USA law, not Australian. Smart eh? something like www.whosadog.com (which doesnt work) There are already websites for women to post shit about their ex boyfriends, and the men targeted had no legal recourse to stop the libel, so I really don't know how this legally pans out. It all depends on where the offending material is being hosted in either case... Internet stuff isnt hard to prosecute since the DMCA stuff was approved by Mark Vaile when the US free trade agreement was signed in 2006, its just very costly. -D Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/245813-ex-gf-websites/#findComment-4275553 Share on other sites More sharing options...

whozadog Posted February 24, 2009 Share Posted February 24, 2009 It's funny when you do a google search and you see what comes up. I stumbled across this forum because I did a search on my website WhoZA Dog.Com Let me clear one thing up, the website was never setup to slag off anyones girlfriend. Today Tonight aired a one sided story. We have not shutdown we are running. Currently the Queensland Labor Party President Andrew Demtter is suing WhoZA Dog.Com for $600,000.00 damages details on the whozadog.com website Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/245813-ex-gf-websites/#findComment-4444012 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dohmar Posted February 24, 2009 Share Posted February 24, 2009 court costs are a bitch..... Either way, legal or not, it shows an immature petty mindset if one would get fixated upon another to that extent...

Sinful Posted February 24, 2009 Share Posted February 24, 2009 haha Dohmar... This is wrong for so many reason..*shakes head* There is always two sides to any story and in the end if some one hates some one else thats only that person opioun..Do we really want everyone to be sheep in this world and what anyone says about a person has to be believed If they need to vent that bad they shouldnt be doing it on the web they need counciling and help and should join a group to have crying sessions and hugs!

fastR Posted February 25, 2009 Share Posted February 25, 2009 Normally sites like this are set up to make money, fill them with cpa, ppc, adds and hope that they go viral. But this one doesn't seem to have many on there, so what is the point of it.

But this one doesn't seem to have many on there, so what is the point of it. well you ask a very interesting question, what is the point of it! There are some fickle people in this world that get off on seeing only the negatives in life & in people then for a chance of 15 minutes of fame, are too dumb to see past their noses and end up fighting court battles & eventually bankruptcy........was it really worth your brief claim to fame?! Whoever you are mate, you sound more like a trouble maker than a car enthusiast and as this is a car forum, unless you can contribute in that department in any way, you're not welcome in here.
