I am aware of diplomats and executives who read and participate in Groklaw.
Groklaw is actually a highly-regarded site, but those who hate the truth it
presents try to hit its credibility. This included false accusation such
as "Groklaw is funded by IBM" or "Groklaw launches DDOS attacks". It's easier
than cleaning up one's act, no? Smears, insults and shills are cheaper (and
yes, Groklaw gets stung by abusive shills, but it bans them quite promptly,
unlike Slashdot, in order to maintain high standards).
