UBrian Hauss kwii-SLAPPs
“Ngoku uqhanqalazo lusesona sixhobo siphambili sokwenza idemokhrasi isebenze,” ngokutsho kwegqwetha labasebenzi base-American Civil Liberties Union uBrian Hauss. Iinkampani ezifana ne-Energy Transfer Partners kunye ne-Resolute Forest Products azivumelani. Ezi nkampani ziye zafaka amatyala ezigidi ngezigidi zeerandi ukuze zivale umlomo abo bachasa izenzo zabo ezigwenxa kwezentlalo nezendalo.
“Namhlanje kunanini na ngaphambili, uqhanqalazo sisixhobo esiphambili sokwenza idemokhrasi isebenze,” utshilo uBrian Hauss, igqwetha leAmerican Civil Liberties Union.
Iinkampani ezinjengabaDibanisi boTshintshiselwano ngezaMandla kunye neMveliso yamaHlathi engasasebenziyo ayivumelani. Ezi nkampani zisebenzisa izigidi ngezigidi zeedola ukuthulisa abo bachasa ukungaziphathi kakuhle kwezentlalo nokusingqongileyo.
