Sir Ray Avery lays Harmful Digital Communications complaint
Online media website Newsroom is likely to end up in court sitting across from the scienctist and entrepreneur Sir Ray Avery. The former New Zealander of the Year has laid a complaint against Newsroom under the Harmful Digital Communications Act. He alleges five of the stories the website has written about him and his inventions have caused him severe emotional distress - amounting to harrassment and digital harm. But politicians are rallying behind the media on this one.
