What would happen if I had a YouTube webseries where I just went through my high school yearbook one by one putting up a picture with the full legal name of the person and just described in great detail everything I remember about them from start to finish. I mean don't we all have like 12 years of memories about these people? What if I just dished my personal opinion and every wild story about hundreds of people with no explanation as to why I was doing it. I could just put up a pic and go this was Brian Chan, he played the piccolo. I remember when we were 14 he had a crush on Susie Silverstein but she thought he was invisible.

I probably have dozens of hours of content I could fill about all the people I grew up with and random shit like Bobby's dad died randomly one night. I had one friend whose dad lost a bunch of fingers in an accident and we all thought it was mob related.

Is any of this legal to speak about publicly on the internet with their picture and full legal name or will I just get sued to shit over it? Could I talk shit about some chick who never developed? Could I say this guy ultimately died of an overdose at 25? Really need a legal opinion on this before I go live looking directly into a camera and air out decades of intimate personal details about all these people. Is this legal if I just rely on memory?

100% legal so long as it's not defamatory or threatening. First Amendment rights are pretty broad. Defamation requires a false statement of fact, so if you're just talking shit and giving your opinion of them from HS that wouldn't count.

Anyone can sue anyone. She would not have been successful if the suit proceeded against people saying she had big cans.

The suit was voluntarily dismiss by her. Meritless suits aimed at extracted settlements are common. Some make their entire living off of it!

why would you include their full names, making doxxing 17394949x easier? at least cover up the last name. would be better to change the names completely

also, i envy not only your storytelling ability but also your memory. i do not remember anything from high school or earlier

And then he could embellish the details, make up stories even. Hell he could just write a script about a random person and make a movie out of it.

OP would be great at this. his memories are probably largely embellished by his own imagination anyways
