The biggest deterrent IMO to one of these scams actually bringing a defamation suit (as opposed to merely threatening one) is that truth is an absolute defense to a libel/defamation claim, and any legitimate critical poster who got sued could have a field day with the discovery process requesting documents and information from the company to show that all the "bashing" was in fact true. Not that I would put it past many of these CEOs to destroy or cover up any evidence, but I think the exposure risk from actual litigation is enough to keep most of the crooks at bay
