RIM could face lawsuits over outage

News - By: SPBlast! Staff - October 20, 2011


Reuters has a piece that claims law firms around the US and Canada are exploring possible class action lawsuits against RIM for last weeks massive BlackBerry outage. The piece mentions possible breach-of-contract or consumer-fraud claims.

Law firms in the United States and Canada are exploring possible consumer lawsuits against Research In Motion Ltd for last week's BlackBerry outages, which for three days crippled email and messaging for tens of millions of users around the world.


The outage was a major hassle for everyone, but does it really rise to the level of filing a lawsuit? In my view, a lawsuit would be silly at this point. Technology is not perfect! Use it at your own risk.
