The algae article was removed under threat of extreme legal action
from the source in their state court, not Federal court where freedom of
speech issues would be more openly dealth with.
I thought it was kind of cheezy for them to attack the writer and the
space provider instead of going after the authors of all the scientific
articles that were quoted; but I guess the lawyers figured the
universities and others would fight back. So they went after small fish
like us any anyone else posting about loo reen algae in the USA and
Australia, and maybe elsewhere, threatening us with thousands upon
thousands of dollars of "economic damages"; but not enough that it would
be a Federal case, just an Oragano State case.
Oprah may have had $4 million to defend herself in court against the
cattle barons who sued her for what she said about Beef and prions, but I
am not that rich, so the author and I took the articles down.
Aas for eating that stuff, I tried it long ago and felt like someone
turned the lights out on me. But then, I have a LOT of allergies, so it
may have been just me.
Like I say, eat saur kraut, it's good for you!
