I'm disappointed in the Access Foundation's reaction. The nature of the Internet
is that it is as easy to respond to an allegation as to make one. If every time
someone says something critical about a company online, that company reaches for
the lawyers, the quality and reliability of discourse on the Internet will
decline rapidly. So far, people are refreshingly frank online, in a way that
magazines cannot afford to be. As Nick Szabo said, the important thing is that
there should be online redress for errors...
