Re: Harassment and Defamation on the Internet
Posted by Charlene Blake on 3/30/07
Interesting totally subjective post---full of intentional spin
and untruths, I might add.
If you truly did research my postings, you will find auto
consumer-oriented postings which are chock full of resources
for Toyota owners who have been affected by engine oil sludge.
My post here has to do with the legal issues surrounding the
cyberstalking. I am not complaining; evidence of defamation is
abundant.
Apparently, you aren't accurately researching the Toyota sludge
matter. I have never posted defamatory posts about anyone nor
will I ever. I am an auto consumer advocate who champions
those who wish to speak up about major vehicle problems (in
this case Toyota) that may be widespread in scope.
The cyberstalkers I am referring to always use pseudonyms or
anonymous postings to do the damage. I have always included my
full name along with links for owners to use to document their
vehicle cases.
The cyberstalker(s) isn't very clever. Clues have been left
which can be helpful in tracking their identity(ies).
I have a life, thank you. That life include the freedom to
speak up about vehicle problems that are far more widespread
than an automaker reveals.
My work is based on objective data revealed by Toyota owners'
experiences. Must hit a raw chord for you, eh?
