- nostrebored 6d agowhat benefit do they get from making the statement? they could just say nothing. saying it and having it be untrue opens them to legal issues that are not worth the risk for this nothingburger.
- freejazz 6d agoWhat legal issues?
- ghostly_s 6d agoWhat more are you hoping for? There is no legal matter at play, is the court of public opinion going to subpoena their records?
- HarHarVeryFunny 5d agoIn the US you can always sue someone in civil court for damages you think they have caused you. For criminal charges you need to have violated the law, but in a civil case it seems it's enough to have suffered monetary or reputational harm which was the other person's fault whether intentional or due to negligence, etc. IANAL, and I'd be surprised to see any lawsuit come out of this, but you certainly don't need to have "violated the law" to be on the receiving end of a lawsuit.
