Here's a short story:

A certain member of my local hackerspace runs a web-service that returns racist content and nazi-symbolism.

Member gets evicted from the hackerspace and his membership cancelled by democratic vote.

Member sues the hackerspace for public defamation.

Hackerspace is running break-even and can barely afford attorneys and legal advice.

I really, really need to contain myself at this point, but someone truly deserves a can of whoop-ass.

@fribbledom @pandi Do we have an appropriate mechanism written in our #hackerspace #constitution for this kind of situation?

@hieronymus @fribbledom

We keep our lawyer for this kind of problems. And he keeps the passwords to our servers...

You should know this ;)
