| If an HBO show suggested that I was the Bitcoin creator, I would be wealthy... from owning HBO, after my team of lawyers (who accepted the suit on contingency) was done with them. Then there's Google editorializing a headline at the top of search hits: > Top stories > Bitcoin creator's identity revealed in new HBO documentary Yet none of the headlines they show makes that claim: > POLITICO.eu - Bitcoin creator is Peter Todd, HBO film says > Bloomberg - HBO Documentary Suggests Bitcoin Creator Satoshi Nakamoto Is Peter Todd > The New York Times - A New Bitcoin Documentary Reopens the Search for Satoshi Nakamoto > The Crypto Times - Peter Todd Denies He is Satoshi Nakamoto as claimed by HBO... > The New Yorker - Has Bitcoin's Elusive Creator Finally Been Unmasked? In general (not just in this case), there should also soon be some huge lawsuits for robo-slander, robo-libel, robo-defamation, robo-reckless-endangerment, etc. Government is getting a lot more tech-savvy, and "everything's legal, if you claim an AI/algorithm/computer/dog did it" isn't flying anymore. |
