This is like suing because someone did a profile on you and published it on Yahoo.

This is like suing because someone did a profile on you and published it on Rapist Watch.

If that had happened, I doubt there would be many saying, "Well, they never accused me of being a rapist, so I guess it's OK."

It really depends on what is said. Rapist watch can profile people who watch for rapists too.

But someone might see that profile an think that I'm a 'yahoo!'
