Twittering Tenants

We’ve talked about tenants whose internet usage cause problems for landlords.  Here’s another example.  Via Ars Technica:

a property management company in Chicago has filed a lawsuit against a tenant who tweeted an off-the-cuff comment about the company. The company, Horizon Group Management, says that the Twitter user in question sent the message maliciously, and is now asking for $50,000 in damages.

I don’ t think the Landlord deserves $50,000 in damages for this, but tenants broadcasting information about your apartment can definitely be problematic.

Do you have any stories about your tenants publishing stories about your units?
