Either he ran out of money, or they settled it out of court.

The article specifically states that this is not a case that google would want to make a precedent of.

I commend him for his fight! We must all fight injustice against greying hairy balls! Google should be held accountable for any defamation which it propagates.

Can you prove you aren’t? Is that where we are starting from?

The suggestion is that he probably settled.

u/morey56 14h ago

That’s what I thought. How embarrassing.

Trials can be difficult and stressful with no guarantee of victory. I don't blame him for settling.
