MagicJack sued BoingBoing for defamation after they had the gall to criticize the gadget maker's EULA, and the blog has won, to the tune of $50,000.
BoingBoing argued that the user agreement gave MagicJack the right to analyze the calls of customers using its USB dongle device. The device allows users to make cheap calls over VoIP. BoingBoing fought back, and won. The judge tossed the defamation case after the blog's successful anti-SLAPP motion, and MagicJack was forced to pay the blog's legal costs, to the tune of $50,000. It's safe once again to talk about consumer products even if the company hasn't paid you to do it.
