I thought disparagement had to be untrue, though, so allowing it now might not actually provide any useful gossip?

Like, now, instead of saying "Experts Exchange is run by clowns", now I can say "Experts Exchange is run by literal clowns".

not necessarily. in this context* there's no real legal definition of the term so a commonly held definition (i.e. "something bad about something") is usually used in general. an agreement almost always defines what that means specifically because otherwise it can be voided for being too vague though

*there used to be a specific definition in trademark law that specified it was (in essence) an untrue statement of disrepute but that was struck down in 2017: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Matal_v._Tam

Well my severance agreement doesn't define it! It does carve out an exception in case I'm compelled to testify against the company lol

Who wants gossip about Experts Exchange then? (nobody)

the most shocking thing I’ve heard about that company is that there were actually good answers behind the paywall.

I’m still skeptical

the chatgpt submission did not work, but it made me realize something. i am mot doing homework projects unless they are compensated. they are just as bad as leetcode roulette. maybe even worse for the effort put into them( i still spent time writing code for the chatgpt submission)

this poo poo is cyclical, don't worry. just look at all the hype frothing around ai. there's always going to be another dragon for capital to chase. just gotta wait a bit for them to start itching again
