      For this one I just wanted to see how many potentially stupid choices defendants of this case have made, but since youtube and other international companies publishing media it can be useful to stay somewhat aware of what is going on with laws that impact media distribution, copyright, etc. Places like the US and EU with ideas about how to enforce copyrights can have a big influence on platforms.

There was a bunch of bright lights and a booming voice stating the desk was mine, so it felt pretty legit. There was also something or other about blood donations and sacrifice or whatever, but I was more focused on how I didn't have to work the rest of the Saturday. Anyway, I keep seeing images of my death in my dreams and whenever I spill coffee on the desk. Never when, only how.

The guy who claimed it did then went on to claim repeatedly that it was (must have been) Eric Comer in the "phone call", but the causality goes the other way--he wanted to make allegations about Eric Comer, so he made up a "phone call" which said stuff that was as specific as he thought would sound plausible. The "phone call" only didn't have someone saying "And now, allow me to introduce Eric Comer, the Such-and-Such of Dominion, so that he can incriminate himself" because that would be obviously ridiculous.

    Regarding the 'unchaste' thing, when I was in high school a guy I knew wouldn't stop telling everyone he met about having had sex with a particular girl. He had done so, but he wouldn't stop telling everyone about it. He didn't care what it did to her, and no one did anything about it as far as I know. I definitely wish someone had taken legal action against him.

      If somebody starts rumours that they slept with you, you can get back by spreading your own rumours of how bad they are in bed and make up weird fetishes they have. They've given you power over them without knowing it.

      @@DFloyd84 imo, damaging them through the legal system seems much more satisfying than damaging their reputation through rumors. Though the latter seems fine when the former is unavailable.

      There might be _some_ grounds for a harassment claim, though its kind of shaky since his statements (I'm assuming) would have been made to other people rather than to her.
      And aside from that, there's unfortunately no laws against being an asshole, no matter how much harm it causes :(.

      On second thought, there is another category of laws that might apply depending on where you live and when these actions took place: Anti-bullying laws. Those laws are fairly new though and definitely not standardized across states (never mind other countries) so YMMV but its at least a second possibility for anyone else who might suffer as your friend did.

      "If I pick up a kitchen knife, go out of my house, and stab someone, is it considered assault?" Where's the room for a 'maybe' in that one?
