So Blogger has to give up the info on who called Cohen a "skank." Terrible. Terrible. Terrible.

First of all, is it really defamation if you're called a name? Someone better alert the playgrounds across the Universe!

Second of all, how could the courts even dream of trying to set such a precedence? This is obviously going to become a loop-hole for every Tom, Dick, and Harry to come running to Google (or your ISP) with their hand out asking for your information because you said such and such about so and so.

        God, the whole idea is mind boggling intimidating. Though Bells would probably be right up there. nm - ralph wiggum Aug 19, 00:28
