CPT's Page on Foreign Libel, Slander and Defamation Cases CPT's Page on Foreign Libel, Slander and Defamation Cases Hague consequences: 17 recent foreign defamation stories One of the frustrating issues in working on the Hague Convention on Jurisdiction is the astonishing low level of concern among newspaper and press organizations over the impact of the Convention on laws involving speech. Apparently assuming that the Hague Convention's Public Policy exception and the US first amendment will make any an all global laws irrelevant to US citizens, there has been zero engagement by the press on this treaty, as a stakeholder. And by that, I mean zero. Not one press organization or corporate content provider has registered any concern about the Convention on speech related issues. The only ones that have raised concerns been been the ISPs, because they correctly understand that they will be the ones sued, and that since they have foreign assets and peering connections, they will find it difficult to hide behind the US 1st Amendment.
