香港英皇集团主席杨受成起诉谷歌诽谤案押后裁决 - 杨受成,英皇,谷歌 - IT资讯香港英皇集团主席杨受成起诉谷歌诽谤案押后裁决
据香港《明报》报道,香港英皇集团主席杨受成早前控告Google,指在网站输入杨的中英文名字时,网站的“搜寻建议”出现诽谤字词。案件7日于香港高院提讯,Google申请撤销诉讼。
Google庭上表示,涉案的搜寻建议,是根据字词的流行度而得出,又举例指即使Google出现“警务处长黑社会”的搜寻建议,也不等于做出了“警务处长是黑社会”的陈述。
代表Google的资深大律师麦高义表示,Google只是中立地根据搜寻字词的流行度做出搜寻建议,一切都纯粹基于统计学分析,随时间和地区的不同会出现不同结果,故不能说Google是诽谤内容的“发布者”。麦高义又称,于Google键入“杨受成”后出现的字词,彼此之间没有任何语法上的联系,根本不能成为诽谤的陈述,最多只反映了Google使用者对此议题有兴趣,但不构成任何看法或意见。
杨受成一方称,他于香港及海外地区皆为知名人士,涉案的诽谤字句对他影响甚大。杨受成一方又援引澳洲案例,指当地陪审团曾裁定Google属诽谤内容的“发布者”,故此案存有重大法律争拗,不应轻易地被撤销。暂委法官吴美玲决定押后裁决。
