I know that many websites are based on the whole “If you don’t like what I have to say, click the X” mentality. Hell, I consider all of my domains to run by the same standard. It’s rare when I come across something that completely offends me and I receive a lot of spam email during the day in regards to either child porn, penis enlargement, random “you suck” comments left on my blog and other stupid things like that. I’ve naturally grown a sort of thick-skin to avoid really being effected by any of these statements being thrown at me.
I recently came across a website that offended me to no end, and this is a very rare occurrence. The owner of the site is a business man that is new in his field and more than likely just hasn’t worked out the kinks yet. He’s in the process of ridding someone who’s abusing his services and instead of dealing with it privately he’s gone on to not only publicly explain what she’s doing wrong but has also thrown random statements (that I doubt are even true) of drug usage and other aspects of her life that no one is really entitled to know. He was smart enough to not list her name for any of this but all the girl would have to do is find his website and look at the sidebar to know exactly who this man was talking about considering his pictures are plastered all over the place. I’m not quite sure how someone is able to get away with this when they’re supposed to be considered a professional.
I know, I’ve had my fair share of crap going on in the past but I would never take it as far as this person has with his client issues. I just hope that before he gets any further in his field he works on some kind of business etiquette for his future ventures or he’s not going to get very far in life at all.
I know what you mean. It’s ashame what I sometimes find, while roaming around on the ‘net. Sometimes I find myself just stopping for a moment and thinking…hmmm…is that even legal?
It’s deflamation but not if he didn’t list her name *sigh*
Of course, the other aspect is, if he has other employees or friends or family that know who she is, they’d know too.
That’s not right at all in my opinion. I hate when people drag other people into blogs and make assumptions about their personal life, etc. You see it a lot with e-drama, that’s why i tend to stay away from it.
