UK libel law has always been a great way for the wealthy to bankrupt their critics. Now it's not just being used by terror financiers and their friends. Chiropractors are suing to shut up their critics, and it appears that U.K. judges are enthusiastically stacking the deck against Internet critics of chiropractors' dubious claims. This kind of human rights violation could not happen in the US, but UK courts are surprisingly willing to impose their values on the rest of the Internet, so it can happen to Americans who have the temerity to use the Internet.
You might almost think that Europe is the seat of legal imperialism and unilateralism.
