– I did a search on Google, and soon found out that they had made such threats before. They have tried to sue another Youtube-ing, but they have not been successful, says the IT enthusiasts 14-year-old told Dagbladet.
Stavanger Aftenblad says the US company that Wadood its age does not matter.
Age does not matter
– This is libel and slander and unlawful both in the US and elsewhere. A video blogger who came with exactly the same charges in a previous lawsuit against us, acknowledged openly that this would cost him 500,000 dollars. These are the facts and was offered as advice to Wadood. If he continues to create false accusations against companies (and not only MacKeeper) and call it “free speech”, he should know that it is illegal and that there may be legal costs, writes Chrome Tech in the email.
According to Krom Tech does Wadoods age nothing for manipulations, writes the newspaper.
– Luqman Wadoods age gives him no free access to creating false accusations or engage in harassment. Whether you are 14 or 80 years old, the same law. We treat all cases of harassment and defamation alike, the company said.
