Autoadmit and Juicy Campus

Merging a couple of suggestions from different Facebook threads, how about a speaker discussing issues related to Autoadmit (also known as xoxohth.com) and Juicy Campus? There's a wide range of opinions over the Autoadmit lawsuit (update here); recent discussions of Juicy Campus add additional issues such as the site's founder's desire for anonymity. The Autoadmit lawsuit sprung from Yale, so there's likely to be local interest; potential panelists include the folks quoted in the various articles.

This could conceivably be a session in it's own right, perhaps a lunchtime breakout; or it might make more sense as a slot in a broader session on cyberbullying.

Thoughts?

I started a new thread on Frank's proposed session on Privacy, Reputation, and the Management of Online Communities.
