Canadian model taking Google to court
By IANSWednesday, January 7, 2009
LONDON - Canadian model Liskula Cohen, who has worked for the likes of Armani and Versace, is taking Google to court in an attempt to force the company to reveal the identity of an anonymous cyber-bully.
The 36-year-old Cohen is the victim of a vicious blog ‘Skanks in NYC’, which is hosted by Google-owned platform blogger.com.
‘I was shocked and embarrassed to see photo captions and commentary used to describe me as a promiscuous woman who is filthy, disgusting, foul and a whore,’ vogue.co.uk quoted Cohen as saying.
While acknowledging that it is difficult to identify anonymous bloggers, Cohen’s lawyer Steven Wagner is confident that taking Google to court in order to get the name will prove successful.
