Somehow this message from Morten got automatically discarded. Thought I'd pass along.

I forgot to post this when it happened, but I wrote about this nonsense in the Danish newspaper Politiken a few weeks ago. Thought I'd post it now, also in support of Professor Roberts, who we are so proud of in our department!
It's in Danish, and though I tried to use neutral verbiage, I'm sure Danish regulations of the freedom of the press would be sufficient to keep any law suits at bay. But have fun with Google Translate if you please...

I mean I certainly don't intend to be silenced about either the record or my take on this situation, or engaging with others about it. That's rather the aim of suing, right?

Dear All:
I think it might be wise for you to consider that the SIGCIS Members email discussion archives are published publicly.
Dr. Ayyadurai and his lawyers are included in this public.

It may be an ideal time to publicize this goofiness, given the area of alternative facts and the public' fatigue with them, and the bullies who rely upon them.

The reporter is quite a good technology reporter, in my view; and I see the Globe as a pretty high quality newspaper. I suspect that the article was carefully reviewed by the Globe's legal people to cast doubt on Ayyadurai's claims without making it possible for him to sue them for saying his claims are wrong.

Well, the article – and even more the readers' comments – are far from providing our self-proclaimed hero with the best publicity...
The most objectionable in this paper is the term "skeptics" ("The skeptics say that by the 1970s, e-mail as we know it today was routinely used"). We are not "skeptic", we know that S.A.'s claims are wrong.
Yours truly,
