Cohen vs Rosemary vs Google

I think Cohen should be able to sue to find the identity of the blogger only if the blogger somehow had knowledge of certain personal information of Cohen's and posted it on their blog. But in its current state with there being name calling i personally don't believe that Cohen should be able to sue over this.

This is my opinion because i personally find it annoying to hear stories of people suing over little matters like name calling, or an example could be the hot coffee ordeal with McDonalds a few years ago. I feel Cohen suing google for the name of the blogger was a waste of time for the courts and lawyers.


I personally do believe that Rosemary should be able to sue google. This suing was not a waste of time in my opinion

This is my opinion because Google released personal information to the Courts over a case that i believe to be a waste of time and money. Now Rosemary's identity is out there when she originally thought she could stay anonymous. This is all because Cohen couldn't take name calling and threw a temper tantrum.


This case may affect me simply because we now use Google's blog site, which is where this lawsuit and trouble was originally posted on, this site. The face that google did release Rosemary's name means that identities for bloggers on this site may not be 100% safe anymore. It may change people's opinions as well as my own on what one would post on one's blog.
