Google being sued in India for defamation.
In India, a Small construction equipment company is suing the mighty Google through its subsidiary Google India Private Ltd for defamation. The case arises when a blogger in India using Google's Blogger service, posted some negatives writings about the company concerning its business dealings in the African country called Mozambique, earlier this year. In February, the company in question filed a suit against the Google affiliate, trying to force it to reveal the identity of the blogger. A Bombay High Court deemed the suit has merit and ordered the blog taken down with the deadline to reveal the blogger's identity within the next four weeks. The blog has been taken down, but the Google affiliate has still not revealed the blogger ID.
To that Indian company, a little piece of advice: instead of fighting a lonely blogger, how about working on your Google ranking in search results? Apparently you have too match time in your hands and very few business.
