I would agree with you for the better part, but unfortunately if someone posted something false about you, that ultimately cost you your job, or perhaps even your relationship / marriage, I think you have every right in the world to make that person liable.

If someone outed you for something that you actually did do, and can back it up, well that just your stupidity for letting it get out there.

The internet is very dangerous for any type of professionals nowadays. There are numerous posters on this board, myself included, who's real identities are known through doing business with many people on this board. All it would take is one really po'd person to create a nightmare that could cost thousands of dollars in legal bills to fix.
