And Jacobs lost the defamation claim in Oct 2021.

@91toph @steventdennis @ariegoldshlager @taylorlorenz

Zillow is public information. If you read the story you wouldn’t assume that was a private home. That was an address Jacobs used for the business the story is about (which is basically a story about running a factory town for influencers).

Judge Dismisses Libel Suit Against 'New York Times' and Taylor Lorenz

Article published in 2020 did not defame influencer coach Ariadna Jacob, judge rules.

@amr My feeling: if it puts money in the pockets of the players, I can live with it. This reminds of when lots of people were upset about theaters running advertisements before movies.
