We could keep the contact information of people who make legal  
complaints to the office, and then if/when Wikitruth.info republishes  
the material inform the complaining party so they go after  
wikitruth.info.

Would that constitute disrupting their lives to make a point? Yes.  
Should we do it? Absolutely.
