from a reader of Interesting People: "This raises an interesting question. How large does your mailing list have to be before you may be subject to libel laws--10, 100, 1000. Since I would argue that a libelous comment on the Net can be even more damaging that a similar comment in a newspaper, I would support extension of libel laws to cyberspace--but only for "publishers". But how to define that term?"
