    Slander in business practice is actually illegal however when dealing with customers, so if youre saying GMs do that it actually could get them in legal trouble. While I highly doubt someone will, the new TOS is sure to bring about that “one” person “eventually” who brings light to something like this to media who eventually starts highlighting it everywhere just like they did for the 18 hour boss fight in ffxi and SE had to publically apologize and change its entire dynamic. GMs doing that puts them in very high risk unless that person admitted to the use of a utility.

    Youre right though its not a court trial, but when a business is violating human rights of people, the slander, especially when theyre not even employees of it, it sure can become one. Slander is a civil wrong (tort) and can be the basis for a lawsuit.

    It doesnt surprise me GMs would do this though honestly, but there is definitely legalities here if so.
