A nice place to discuss rumors, happenings, innovations, and challenges in the technology sphere. We also welcome discussions on the intersections of technology and society. If it’s technological news or discussion of technology, it probably belongs here.
Remember the overriding ethos on Beehaw: Be(e) Nice. Each user you encounter here is a person, and should be treated with kindness (even if they’re wrong, or use a Linux distro you don’t like). Personal attacks will not be tolerated.

IANAL but even though their statements are "in public" but I doubt either of them would qualify as public figures - that is reserved for politicians and such.
That being said, spez here seems to have actually slandered iamthatis. This occurred when when spez claimed that iamthatis was "blackmailing" reddit for 10M$, which incidentally lead iamthatis to post audio recordings proving that spez was lying.
Maybe I've got some of those details wrong, so correct me if I am.
