Legal Matters
In case if you are considering a law suit against this site, please read this page first!
The Supreme Court of the United States has held that anonymity of speech is protected under the First Amendment to the Constitution (see McIntyre v. Ohio, 514 U.S. at 337; Talley v. State of California, 362 U.S. 60). United States courts also recognize the right to speak anonymously – AND have held that the right extends to speech on the Internet. When courts have ordered disclosure of the name of an anonymous user, a litigant must show that its need for identifying information outweighs the user’s constitutional right. www.homewarrantyreviews.com recognizes this right to anonymity of our users.
Further, as per Electronic Frontier Foundation,
Anyone questioning the legality of anonymous postings on an internet site should familiarize himself or herself with 47 USC Section 230, the federal law that permits many entities to “host” other people’s content without being liable for defamation/libel etc. “By its plain language, § 230 creates a federal immunity to any cause of action that would make service providers liable for information originating with a third-party user of the service.” Zeran v. AOL, 129 F.3d 327, 330 (4th Cir. 1997). Under 230(c)(2)(A). No provider or user of an interactive computer service shall be treated as the publisher or speaker of any information provided by another information content provider.
However, we reserve the right remove inappropriate comments as justified by the law
(2) Civil liability.–No provider or user of an interactive computer service shall be held liable on account of– “(A) any action voluntarily taken in good faith to restrict access to or availability of material that the provider or user considers to be obscene, lewd, lascivious, filthy, excessively violent, harassing, or otherwise objectionable, whether or not such material is constitutionally protected.
