Filmon.com v. Doubleverify, Inc., No. B264074 (D2d3 Jul. 25, 2017)
Defendant here sells some kind of service where it sniffs out whether adbuys on the Internet are really effective. One part of this service is to uncover whether the sites on which its customers’ ads are displayed have adult content or are commonly used as channels for copyright infringement. Defendant rated Plaintiff’s site—which purports to be a free and legal content streaming site—as containing both of those things. Plaintiff sued Defendant for various libel-ish torts. Defendant filed an anti-SLAPP motion, which the trial court granted. Plaintiff appeals.
