    The History of FuckedCompany.com

    I would love if you wrote a retrospective on the rise & fall of Fuckedcompany.com. The Gawker of its time was the people's watchdog for corporate corruption during the dotcom era. It survived the bubble burst only to be brought down litigation a few years later. The name & site have fallen out of public memory, but what does its story tell us about free expression & libel laws on the internet?
