In this episode we talk to Rebecca Lindhout, Special Counsel at McCullough Robertson in Sydney, about the rapidly evolving area of social media defamation.
The 'grapevine effect' of social media makes it a dangerous place to be settling personal scores or slandering rivals, and even the smallest statement may land you or your business in hot water.
Can commenting on a news article amount to defamation? What about sharing a Facebook post or writing a Google review? Rebecca talks us through why it's a dangerous time to be a 'keyboard warrior' yourself, or to play host 'keyboard warriors' on your digital platforms.
