> (1) this is, by the way, something that Musk did to that diver he didn't like.

It also should be noted that Musk __won__ that libel case. So that's "acceptable speech" according to our laws and courts.

So no. Libel laws are _NOT_ the answer. Its too difficult to actually sue someone for libel today. You can apparently call someone a pedophile, advertised to dozens-of-millions of followers, and not be considered "libel" or "defamation".

If there's one thing I learned from that event, its that our libel laws / defamation laws are not strict enough. Its not worth going to the courts on this kind of thing because you'll lose.
