You really don't see the difference here?
Texas.net is not a person it is a company that has harmed me and
in a court of law, I can and will prove it.
Additionally, I have a right, as a consumer, to express my opinions of
companies that I have done business with.

You do not have the right to defame my name since that I am a private
individual and it is recognized that I am not a celebrity by any definition.
This has been tried before and the only ones that have no legal leg to stand
on
are those with celebrity status.  Movie stars and other folks that are
commonly
known in the average households may not be considered private individuals.

Do you think  a customer who is thinking of signing up with your service
would be likely to do so now?
Isn't it reasonable for that person to conclude that, upon whim or
otherwise,
that customer may one day find themself defamed and injured so that
you may have a laugh at their expense?
Maybe you should go to Texas.net on a Sunday morning where they admit
to having hung up on a customer to find out how many times he would call
back
and all the while, rolling on the floor laughing?

Yes, there is an attitude in here.
