I actually don't think you could be held liable or charged, but i'd still be careful. I say this because you're only repeating something "a little bird told you". You are not directly involved in negotiations, and I assume don't work for VZW or Moto. So you're not really giving out facts, just speculation (after all, your source COULD be lying to you) - really nothing more than these types of tech blogs do when they report certain things. The worst they get is a cease and decist order. It's your actual source that could be civilly and criminally liable. (DISCLAIMER: I am not implying you or your source is lying, just speaking from a legal standpoint. And I am not an attorney, but I stayed at a Holiday Inn Express last night *LMAO*)
