Umm… correct me if I’m wrong, but…
> – is being used to abuse, harass, stalk, or threaten others

Aren’t abuse, harassment, stalking and threats of bodily harm illegal (at least in most states)?

> – is libelous, knowingly false, ad-hominem, or misrepresents another person,

Isn’t libel something you can sue for and win, if it really was libel?

> – infringes upon a copyright or trademark

Again illegal?

> – violates an obligation of confidentiality

A civil matter, but again, addressable in civil/chancery court if there is in fact a contract?

> – violates the privacy of others

Varies from state to state, country to country, but still, potentially a legal issue?

So on the one hand, it seems to me that this “code” is just restating what should be the obvious potential legal issues around blogging. It shouldn’t even be necessary.

On the other hand, what’s your problem with it? All of these issues are things that are either illegal or potential sources of litigation. Apparently, some bloggers really DON’T know better — what’s the harm in spelling it out?

I let Duncan Riley start flame wars on my website and I didn’t get an icon or a t-shirt or anything. Poor form.

HAHA .. @Pete .. I just lost my comment typing this in here – due to that 3 minute refresh code.

According to the pMetrics graphic stats in the sidebar – April 9th had unique visitors of 658 and page views of 6027. I guess that’s why the ratio is so off.
