I’ve followed up on your earlier investigations into RCAM’s company registration, and it looks like there could potentially be some seriously dodgy stuff going on, even worse than false addresses. I’ve written an article on it here.

Keep up the awesome work.

I have a certain amount of experience in defamation litigation, having seen off a vexatious claim or two in the past.

The Quack’s entire case depends on whether a court will find whether his reputation has been damaged by your claims. In the light of his GMC woes and other *cough* negative publicity swimming about on the web that he hasn’t been able to remove, the answer will almost certainly be a big, fat no.

I’ve just posted an entry investigating Obi on my own blog if anyone’s interested. From what I’ve found out, he’s hardly rich enough to sue a 1000 sites (http://layscience.net/?q=node/32).

To whom it may concern at Netcetera,

I am writing this e-mail to thank you.

I have just read the story about how the Quackometer website was shut down by yourselves. Frankly I am appalled that any company would bow down to such obviously baseless threats as those made by Joseph Chikelue Obi.

I am in the process of finding a new host for my web page and I was considering your services as you were generally getting good reviews.. That is, I was considering your services until I did a googe-search on “netcetera web host” and as the 6th or 7th resulst got this headline: “Netcetera are a pathetic, cretinous excuse for a webhost at …”.

Naturally I clicked on the link and found the story of how the Quackometer website had been shut down. Fortunately the Quackometer web site has found another host and as usual the internet keeps going in spite of spineless corporations and people’s feeble attempts at censorship.

In light of the above it may seem a bit odd that I am writing to thank you but that is in fact what I would like to do on 2 accounts. Firstly, by researching your company, I came across the delightful Quackometer webpage which I had never before heard about (has gone into my favourites-list) and secondly, by your actions you made my decision NOT to use your services very easy (I really dont want my web page shut down at the first sight of any ridiculous and unfounded complaint).

So thank you very much. I will certainly make sure that noone I know will ever use your services, barring the unlikely circumstance that you actually grow a spine and stop caving in to frivolous threats.

Kind regards,

Jens Hansen
