I had a small hand in it and it does give a decent overview of defamation, from the perspective of online publishing. I didn't intend to scare people. But I do think that for people to make real choices about what they want to publish they need to know the rules and risks that apply. Urging people to be fearless, without telling them what might happen to them as a consequence is not something I'd feel was fair.

I like it! So much so that I might actually become trendy, in order to valididate it. In any case, congratulations to all involved. At Cian's age, I certainly won't have the courage, nevermind motivation, to organise such an event. Fair play there, and to everyone else of course. And as far as finances go, what's the story?
