nah she won and did a great service to her fellow human beings.
this was not lost or wasted time. people spend decades on far more "useless" things - not that there is anything wrong with that
She didn't win, they settled out of court. The article definitely does its best to avoid mentioning even a single detail about the case beyond the outcome, and even that it misconstrues.
Dr. Duffy left a bad review for some psychics on the site "RipOff Report" and lied about her friend’s wife committing suicide due to bad advice given by the psychics. A few unsavory posts based on her behaviour ended up being published there as well. The big crime that Google committed was providing the most common autocompletes on search terms like it does for every other search query. In this case, it showed the search term “janice duffy psychic stalker” after typing in "janice duffy".
I don't see how any of this insane story counts as a "great service to her fellow human beings".
I did get ripped off but if you do some research so did hundreds of others. People lose millions every year to internet scams. This IS an scam website. I formed a support group and the defamatory content was published to stop the support group.
Have you ever spent years of your life tied up in litigation?
It's not fun. It's very frustrating, to feel as though a resolution will never happen. It feels indeterminate; indefinite.
It's a shame that she should have to spend twelve years of her life pursuing justice. What about the thousands or millions that simply won't try, because they can't rationalize the effort?
Court actions are bursts of "lots of work", followed by months of waitng. To hear you people talk, it's all she did!
It's like she had a hobby. The way some are talking, she destroyed her life?!?
