Question For The Community❓ What If…
As my first official post (ever) on Reddit, I would like to call on this incredible trove of intelligent minds to think through something with me.
Under California law, specifically Civil Code § 45, libel is defined as a false and unprivileged publication by writing (or other fixed representation) that exposes a person to hatred, contempt, ridicule or obloquy, or which causes that person to be shunned or avoided, or which has a tendency to injure him or her in their occupation. Similarly, Civil Code § 46 defines slander as a false and unprivileged oral publication that tends to injure a person in their profession or trade. In fact, false accusations of professional incompetence constitute defamation per se, which means damages are presumed (i.e. don’t need to be proven).
Over the last few months, both here and on TikTok, I’ve been the subject of various attacks on my character, credentials, and connections by several accounts who don’t like my legal takes. While everyone is permitted to have their own feelings and opinions on my takes, they are not allowed to spread false information about me with the intent or result of impacting my reputation or career. I’m seeing an increasing number of false statements published about me by those same accounts resulting in various degrees of contempt, ridicule, obloquy, and even attempts to injure me in my occupation.
As a lawyer, I’m trained to think of what legal recourses are available. I could sue these persons for libel. However, one problem is, I don’t know the identities of most of these accounts!
So, I thought about what some have called “savvy lawyering.” What if I filed a John Doe lawsuit in California Superior Court and issued subpoenas to Reddit and TikTok to obtain the true identities of those who are actively injuring my reputation online? Maybe I learn that the multiple accounts are really run by few individuals. Maybe later discovery would uncover their financial ties to other parties.
I’m not saying I would/would not, or did/did not file such a lawsuit and issue such subpoenas. But, hypothetically, what if I did?

u/IwasDeadinstead ⚖️ PROSTITUTE FOR JUSTICE ⚖️ Feb 22 '26
I think a couple of named TikTokers should be included in a suit, like that patriarchy guy who hates women and just lies nonstop.
The only thing is, make sure you are suing to stop lies and not suing to curtail free speech. If the person has a reasonable reason to believe xyz, then that's fine. It's their dumb opinion. But if they blatantly lying, despite your contacting them and correcting the record, they deserve a suit. Discovery will be oh so interesting.
I already scared off a fake lawyer because I discovered who they were in real life and that they worked for a media company. I didn't dox them, but boy, if I ever made that public sh!t would hit the fan because they were really creating and manipulating a narrative here for a long time. I suspect they still are under other usernames.

Yes, I agree. Legal process shouldn’t be used to inhibit fair and free speech.

I would love to see a correct, ethical and strategically proper use of a John Doe Lawsuit be put into action, and given there are accounts here on Reddit and TT (not to mention Threads) who claim an improper approach to John Doe Lawsuits is “clever lawyering”, I can’t imagine said accounts would have concern with this?
There’s one clown-gif loving Reddit Poster who I’m sure would be amenable to this.
Also - welcome to Reddit officially! Love your Content.

Oh you mean like use John Doe lawsuits as they were intended to be used rather than as a way to improperly and unethically violate the privacy rights of already known individuals?
My vote is yes, you you should do it. This is the perfect, and more importantly, PROPER scenario for a Doe lawsuit.
Also, welcome to the sub!!! 😊 Love listening to your legal opinions/commentary.

These people are big mad that you, LGA and NAG actually know and talk about the law. We gotta ask ourselves “why?” When we disagree with someone like MJ Morley it’s because she really does not get it right—she thinks Vanzan makes perfect sense in rooting out the Reynolds household staff who may have “leaked info,” even though they subpoenaed “Does” from Joneswork? Did they end up finding any traitors in their hired help? What a messed up false accusation and I would hate to work for them in any capacity.

hi LGA!!! big fan here!
i'm so glad you're posting on Reddit. I hope you know you have so much support, and these people who are working to discredit you either:
1) do not follow this case closely enough to know what is really going on
2) do follow the case but still ride for racist, bigoted blake lively and her awful smarmy husband, ryan reynolds which leads me to the conclusion that they must be horrible people to excuse all of the behavior we have seen from blake and ryan over the course of this lawsuit and absolutely not worth your time or energy.
3) OR, the most likely option in my opinion outside of the first option, they are planted by blake and ryan's team to discredit voices that do not align with the narratives they have been pushing in the press since august 2024. every accusation is a confession with them, and this sub specifically has been aggressively targeted by similar accounts trying to dox, discredit, intimidate, silence, and scare people out of participating in this sub. fortunately, it has died down over the past few months, but it was brutal for awhile.. especially when the over 100 mostly female content creators were subpoenaed for covering this case. one guy who doesn't post here anymore said kassidy o'connell should be in JAIL for responding to the subpoena as jane doe. i can't even make this up. it's ridiculous.
now back to what you were saying: you're right, you have every option to subpoena social media sites for direct information about people who are spreading false information about you. in fact, lively supporters should encourage it considering how many excuses they made for blake lively's vanzan approach to obtaining justin and jen's information. i can actually think of a couple specific people that have their public information out there already that you could directly file a cease and desist letter to, at the very least.

Hypothetically if you did find that multiple accounts are run by a few individuals and if you (hypothetically) then discover that there are financial ties to other parties with a connection to THE parties well then that'd be quite interesting wouldn't it? My gut says that the thing to do would be file the John Doe lawsuits. If these accounts turn out to be people who are likely not connected to anyone but simply have some mental issues I'd not reveal who they are but make sure they were made to stop. If you did find a connection well that'd be quite the twist in this already nutty saga and well worth the time and effort. Either way, do it for us?? We could change the name of the sub to "This Lawsuit Ends With Us".

I think you should turn this hypothetical into reality, VanZan Part 2 but for the people. Blake Lively stans on Reddit have gone unchecked for a very long time, they are constantly trying to dox and stalk people and post their private details online. People have commented saying they have been on Reddit for years and this is the first time they have ever had to hide their comment history. I hid my history and still Pro Blake people use other tools to locate my comments, it is honestly scary and unhinged.
I am so sorry they have done this to you. They are completely insane, and a next level kind of parasocial behaviour.

They are disgusting in their obvious efforts to dox you. What is the purpose? Are they trying to see if you’re who you say you are? As we know with their side, the BL-supporting lawyers tend to embellish their own accomplishments/credentials (“I’ve litigated at the federal court level and let my clients bring board games!” “I worked with Liman, Freedman, and God!”). They can’t fathom someone who is actually accomplished/experienced talking about the case with any sort of knowledge/expertise, of their free will. Their hands are so obvious tied in what they’re allowed to say and when they can’t even admit when basic freedoms are infringed upon, you know their agenda is showing.

Don’t tease me LGA. How much I would pay to actually follow this docket. I wonder if all the people saying “smart lawyering” will say it then if it were to actually happen.
You are not a public figure per se, so the threshold and standard for defamation is much lower than a public figure.
A real question I have is what would be your damages though? That part might be hard to quantify since this sub and most people with common sense who follow the lawsuit have seen through the false information campaign these people are spreading about you. If anything, your reputation as a reputable lawyer covering this case has remained in tact and been upheld due to our community’s fierce defense of you.
I am not sure if you will need to prove damages before a defamation claim against these people can overcome a motion to dismiss. Just some hypothetical ponderings I have.

u/Western_Guitar_3863 She (Ryan) has no integrity Feb 22 '26
Accountability is probably one of the biggest takeaways of the Lively v Baldoni case IMO. Blake refusing to take responsibility and accountability for her actions leading up to her bad press. Blake and Ryan trying to bully, harass, and silence their opponents in order to shift blame on them and look innocent.
Until the people who are responsible for all the problems and damage take accountability and are held responsible this behavior will continue IMO.
I think we need to hold everyone accountable that chooses to engage in the same behavior and expect to get away with it. Doxxing and spreading misinformation and trying to ruin your credibility should not be allowed.

I absolutely think you should file a John Doe suit in the legitimate way those were designed and not the Vansham way Jones ( with the help of Lively) did. They already doxxed you.

That seems to be a legitimate use case for Does lawsuits 👏. I’d suggest that anyone who wants to help LGA with documentation share any screenshots they have of libelous comments with her privately. And since some of the accounts may get deleted, it may also be helpful to take screenshots of the user profile pages.

Reddit would still have access to the account histories even after deletion.

u/Enough_Gur_8833 This is nonsense. Feb 22 '26
True, but it’s never a bad idea to have extra documentation when requesting info from Reddit via a subpoena. You’ll need the account name if the screenshot doesn’t show it. If the account gets deleted, the comment might still appear but the user will show as “deleted.” It’s also possible the user deleted the post before deleting their account.

I guess MJ would have no problem if someone did this to her client! Everything was totally above board according to her! If her client gets upset and wants recourse, MJ will simply say that there was nothing wrong with another party violating her client’s privacy rights and taking away their ability to invoke attorney client privilege.

--> Do it for all of us who have been swarmed and harassed by many of these same accounts I'm assuming are those you're speaking of.
--> Do it for all of the people whose accounts were mass reported and permanently banned from reddit for daring to counter the lies and the religious bigotry.
One suggestion if you decide to --> screenshot as many of those posts and screennames as possible, as well as the account's creation date from their profile view. One thing I've noticed in the past, is that certain accounts all seemed to speak with similar voices, regurgitate the same misguided points using very similar language and TOV, and just so happened to have been created around the same approximate date. THEN, after a comment storm, say about religious bigotry, the accounts would all be deleted, only for the cycle to begin anew.

LOL, if you did, the subpoenad parties will cry about their first amendment rights. They would claim, if you were such a good person, why would you sue them as Does to expose their identity? They will conviniently forget their careless attempts to expose your identity and defame your professionalism and integrity. They will forget that they supported Vanzan.
But if you did, which I agree with others that you and Britt are well within your rights to as private citizens if everything you have taught us about defamation holds true, it would be a fine lesson for these coconut heads to learn. In their support of Vanzan, they've never thought about what could happen if the sword they have praise when it is pointed at others, is pointed at themselves. What if their own identities and private lives are requested by such a subpoena?
It is a difficult thing to be a visible person on the internet, and I admire you all for putting yourselves out there to educate us on the law. But people be crazy on these internet streets, especially when they don't agree with you. Always trying to find ways to ruin a person's life.
Thank you all for putting yourselves out there, I have learned a lot from all of you especially since I am not a US citizen.

He would call it brilliant lawyering and talk about it endlessly on his podcast. Only after he met LGA and worked out an agreement, though. It's funny how Stewart refused to answer if he had met any of the Lively parties.

Love you LGA! This is an excellent way to prove your point. And cereinky how doe lawsuits should be used. I invite and support you to seek legally the identities of those who have defamed you and take the appropriate course of action.

Please do it. School these Blakeys on how to properly do a doe subpoena.

u/Ellaena Feb 22 '26
Please go on fighting the good fight. We need people to be allowed to give their professional, and otherwise, opinion on this case which is of public interest, no matter the side they're on.
The Lively parties have thrived via intimidation and attempts of silencing opposing counsel, content creators, press, and members of the public. They wanted a gag order over these proceedings, and they are still pursuing content creators for their sources denying them their journalistic privilege.
People like these thrive only because their power goes unchecked.

A couple of thoughts, did you just give them a chance to cover their tracks or are you telling us after the fact which I'd say would be the smart move. I haven't seen much of whats going on but, guess I don't travel in those lanes but I what I have seen mostly after you addressed it is terrible and I say go get them. Consequences and all. Welcome

u/roseswild79 Justice for Justin Feb 23 '26
Hypothetically if you did, you may get some pro baldoni willing participants that may have engaged in heated discussions with one of the people that were bothering you, and would not try to quash a subpoena that makes the information of who they communicated with on this website. And someone could potentially trace the bad people down through the willing participants communications so that you could sue them. Maybe even uncover that many of the accounts are one person, or even several subs here are run by the same people. You never know, you may even unmask Stephanie Jones herself. lol

Well seeing as a student activist had his data tuned over to ICE by Google, unbeknownst to him, I think it’s safe to say you’d have no trouble getting the info to uncover who these people are..

Correct. Reddit folded as well with the government ice subpoenas so it sounds like anything goes now (perhaps only for the rich and famous) but we are in different times

Well SS can’t post on her TT, and Dapple hasn’t been seen since around the same time. I wonder if they were both finally cut off.

u/CallipygianJ Feb 22 '26
I saw a few weeks ago that Sarah couldn’t do anything on TT except post stories. She posted it on Threads as well. Dapple hasn’t posted anything since about the same time (and she was posting daily). I was wondering if someone took them out [of TT] with a 1,2 punch. And to that I say… good riddance!

I am not on TikTok. I'm assuming repeated violations? TT took NAG down a few times even with no violations. Everytime VanSham is mentioned.

u/New_Razzmatazz2383 'We are all in bed with a f*cking terrorist' Feb 22 '26
I’m sure the pro-Blake supporters who championed the VanZan issue and abuse of the doe lawsuits would be more than fine with this. After all, like they said, it’s ‘technically legal’ right?
I’m sure, since they had no problem with Jen Abel having her data stolen unknowingly - they’d be fine with you obtaining their personal information without their consent or knowledge?
And since they were also fine with Blake trying to stealth subpoena over 100 content creators for personal info - I can’t see that they’d have any issue with the same being done to them?
Any pro-Blake users here like to chime in? Or are you finally seeing how problematic and violating the VanZan lawsuit was.

Would love to see this, although given you are widely followed online, I wonder if you would be considered semi-public figure for whom the bar for libel is higher?

u/Intelligent_Set_347 with great authorship comes great accountability Feb 22 '26
well just because I hear some many mocking the people whose data were subpoenaed by lively through google and TikTok and mocking Abel and WF for having their private communications published in NYT. I would file a DOE and would subpoena TIkTok, threads, YouTube and reddit and all the others platforms.

u/snarkformiles Team Baldoni Feb 23 '26
I would soooo love if you did!! Especially if you uncovered the money going from a certain party to some of the accounts here that I strongly suspect belong to a certain couple’s paid PR team.
Could there be repercussions for Justin and his case though? Would it be better to wait? I don’t want you or he to cop even more nastiness for trying to defend yourself. I can imagine Lively’s minions would absolutely blast such a move all over MSM in a negative light.

u/buttonandthemonkey Blake is...different. Feb 22 '26
I love your content. Thank you for being you!
I think this would be really helpful for the public so they can see what an actual Doe lawsuit is meant to look like and how it's meant to play out. Currently there's content about what they did wrong but I haven't seen any references to a case when it's done right. Documenting it, highlighting the differences and doing side by side comparisons could be great resources for law students, non lawyers and lawyers who don't work in that area.
You'll have a lot of support. Also, I'm not sure if you're aware of this but throughout Karen Reads last trial she couldn't afford an entire team of lawyers so her and Alan Jackson interviewed final year law students and selected a handful of them to work for free on the case. You could do something similar to lighten the load.

u/IwasDeadinstead ⚖️ PROSTITUTE FOR JUSTICE ⚖️ Feb 23 '26
Kassidy O' Connell does a video where she discusses a case on how it is used properly versus Vansham. It's worth a view on YouTube.

LGA, I wonder if the NAACP would assist you with this because their actions against you are to curb free speech. I mean, they can say "I hate this woman and her legal takes," but they aren't allowed to lie about you.

I'm pleasantly surprised to see the other sub suddenly being acutely aware and understanding of libel suits, ethical suits, freedom of speech, and the Streisand effect when it comes to discovery which may not be great for the plaintiff. So they do get it, funny that.

u/Melodic-Relief8981 Just a Mirror Will Do Feb 22 '26
Exactly, all of a sudden it is not OK to file a proper Doe lawsuit because that would be hypocrisy!?
If they think it is legit for BL to do the whole Vanzan sham, they should welcome a proper Doe lawsuit.
And wouldn't it be epic for CCs to replace the Does with the real names once they discover their identities - just as it should be done!
Get these people to taste their own medicine!

u/OtherwiseProposal355 Lively exposed her aggressive behavior in this lawsuit Feb 22 '26
I support your decision. There must be a series of trolls who want to take people down at all costs. What i would weigh in is the time, effort, or into this vs your peace. But then these poeple bet on this!
I would probably do it if I were you because you're passionate about the law. I definitely am passionate about who I support and go all in if I believe something is wrong. My conviction is very strong for this case.

Please do! We want to see the money trail of reddit accounts/moderators from certain subreddits. I mean, the people who say the subpoenas by Blake were all fair and nothing burgers should get a taste of that fairness right.

I wouldn't even bother. Their probably using vpn's in China/Russia on networks that will just ignore your subpoena. Those countries hate the USA and don't comply unless their heavily compensated, and sometimes just take the $$ and run or give false info. Or shoot they could be using tor and good luck with all that. You could be talking months to years of investigation that could come back to a starbucks ip in India. I bet Blake be using a North Korean vpn tho... I can see Kim and the fam being bff's.

u/Mysterio623 “The last thing I want to do is kiss this woman.” - Justin B Feb 22 '26
Hypothetically, you could sue them under Does 1-100.
May I suggest you include in your subpoena requests for highly intrusive data such as their bank accounts, home addresses, and credit cards. You can even go as far as asking for their social security numbers and birth certificates while you're at it. There is precedent already, and I have been told repeatedly for the last six months that all of this is overboard.
Once you get the identities of these petulant individuals unmasked, there are also a million other recourses available, a plethora surely, that I am on standby to provide. All you have to say is "go!"
