too much HIGNFY?

I'm about to launch a website in an attempt to cost a company as much
lost business as possible, but as they're extremely litigious, I'm a
tad concerned about covering my arse. All of the information I'm
including is true, but not all of it can be proven, iyswim.

As Molly said, there's an intent to do damage. Also, the onus will be
on you to prove the statements that you make are true.

This is what happened to the McLibel bods.
