Who Knew Online Dating Was Such A Litigious Arena?
from the rabbis,-the-internet,-and-lawsuits-galore dept
If you're single and Jewish it doesn't take you very long to hear about the site Jdate. Jdate is owned by a company called Matchnet, which runs a number of online dating sites. For a while, they had a "resident rabbi" who is no longer involved with the company. The story as to why, however, is more than a little bit bizarre. The story involves a rabbi who's written the book "Kosher Sex", a disbarred lawyer, a phone sex entrepreneur, and a former convict. Roll them all together, and add in an attempted dot com IPO and you've got yourself quite a story.

Re: link to NYT login page
I probably post to 4 or 5 NY Times articles per week, and once every three or four months someone suddenly gets it into their head that I'm causing them a problem. If you don't like it, don't go to the site, but don't make me feel bad for finding news that's interesting.

Personally I like when people link to stories at the NY Times. That saves me a lot of time having to spend on their site looking for the good stories, wading through all the bad. The registration is just an inconvenience, but that's all.
