Offensive and defamatory content

  • Unknown's avatar

    An annonymous person has use your service to post an offensive and highly defamatory comment about a friend who owns a well known local business. It includes her photograph. What steps can be taken to remove it?

  • Hi there,

    Only a court can determine whether content is defamatory, and we don’t remove content from a site simply because it offends someone.

    If you believe a site is violating our terms of service, please report them as explained here:

    Report a Site

    But please also see https://en.support.wordpress.com/defamation/

    We do not assist with terms of service issues in the public support forums besides providing general information, so I’m closing this thread to further replies.
