Personal information/being harassed on a blog
-
Hello guys,
I have a question. My personal information (identity of my husband, and private details about my life) are being discussed on a blog that I gave no permission to do so. She refuses to stop posting my personal information (..everything from details about my adoption, to everything I do..).
I’d like to know who I talk to to get this removed. This isn’t something I’d like on the internet, especially owning a business built off of WordPress.
Blog in question: http://yourrightsbeingdisabled.wordpress.com/2013/03/19/life/

This is a very serious matter, I know that adoption information is legally protected in many countries. WordPress have a form to report abuse here:
http://en.wordpress.com/abuse/
I will also flag this for staff attention

I’ve reported it already. No word on whether or not WordPress has removed it. I click the link and it is still live. I’m hoping WordPress will handle this, before I have to take legal action against the blogger.
This is raising questions I do not want to be asked. She’s slandering me in several posts, including her latest of doing the same to my husband. In one of her posts, she claims I was kidnapped by the government 18 years ago.
I’d be much obliged on advice how to handle this.

We are just individual bloggers, staff will be able to clarify the situation. The only advice that I can give you is that WordPress will act on anything that is clearly abusive and certainly they are obliged to act on anything that is illegal in the USA.
I hope you don’t have to wait very long, but they are the only people who can clarify the situation for you.

What this blogger is doing, is very much illegal in the United States. I hope they handle it soon.
