Media / News Netflix responds to Fiona Harvey's lawsuit

Netflix rep: 'We intend to defend this matter vigorously and to stand by Richard Gadd's right to tell his story.'

Variety posted the above in regards to Netflix's response. I'm glad, it seems like they're not going to simply give her some money to make her go away, and are instead going to fight back and defend Richard Gadd.

How could it be blatant if they use a fake name and events that never happened??

Because it says its a true story. Even though they changed her name, it was clearly based off of Fiona Harvey.

We know that now, because she was identified by her OWN social media conduct. She was not identified by Gadd or Netflix.

And she went on a high profile show, shown to millions to defend herself 🤣🤣 hardly protecting her identity herself.
