So from what I understand, it wasn’t a review, it was someone on social media posing a question about a brand. The kind of thing that might lead to an actual review, but not something I would consider a review.
A fight started, of course.
The OP ended up saying that the product is killing people.
That seems to be the big thing that gave the company justification to do something.
Basically a person started a discussion on social media, ended up claiming that a product is killing people from excessive sugar, and then got sued.
They aren’t being sued from giving a review. But the headline sure baits you into thinking that ;)
No, they were jailed for comments made online, not sued. They are facing potential jail time, probably because a relative got overzealous and angry at a posting.
I did read the article, not just the headline. Dunno how you got the opposite take.
