Minc law advises on their website to find a state with weak or absent anti slapp laws. Wisconsin has none. Look at the complaint. There was shit thrown about kiwifarms, enclopedia dramatica. There was a cyberterrosim claim against the website the just forwarded to kiwifarms.

No antislapp means if you have the money you can just throw bullshit around and see what sticks when a retarded wisconsin judge doesn't know what the fuck is going on. This question is answered in the wikipedia article. This is exactly what was going on.

Strategic lawsuits against public participation (also known as SLAPP suits or intimidation lawsuits),[1] or strategic litigation against public participation,[2] are lawsuits intended to censor, intimidate, and silence critics by burdening them with the cost of a legal defense until they abandon their criticism or opposition.[3]

In a typical SLAPP, the plaintiff does not normally expect to win the lawsuit. The plaintiff's goals are accomplished if the defendant succumbs to fear, intimidation, mounting legal costs, or simple exhaustion and abandons the criticism. In some cases, repeated frivolous litigation against a defendant may raise the cost of directors and officers liability insurance for that party, interfering with an organization's ability to operate.[4] A SLAPP may also intimidate others from participating in the debate. A SLAPP is often preceded by a legal threat. SLAPPs bring about freedom of speech concerns due to their chilling effect and are often difficult to filter out and penalize because the plaintiffs attempt to obfuscate their intent to censor, intimidate, or silence their critics.

Except silicon valley and California had enough of this shit and specifically passed laws for mandatory sanctions against foreign subpeonas. It was common for large companies with money to just file a bullshit slapp lawsuit in a friendly state and then fire subpeonas everywhere.
