Here is another story of a bad reviews lawsuit on
Yelp. In this case, a jeweler sued a worker or relative of an owner of a rival
shop in Massachusetts for a fake “bad review” that seems to have been posted
maliciously.
The Patriot Ledger has a story,as does WCVB. Part of the review included compensation for
emotional distress.
Section 230 would still protect Yelp, but it could
come under increased pressure.
The story was located on local stations around the
country, like WJLA in Washington.
