How We Keep Winning: Another Baseless Case Against Me Gets Tossed

In February 2026 the latest attempt to weaponize the courts against me quietly collapsed. Once again, the facts prevailed and the charge was dismissed. This isn’t a one‑off; it’s part of a pattern. I’m sharing the details here because people need to see how lawfare works, and how to fight it with transparency and truth.

Background

If you’ve followed my work, you know I publish hard data—Ahrefs audits, Google Analytics numbers, and other verifiable analyses. Not everyone appreciates that level of scrutiny. Over the past few years, I’ve been sued repeatedly by a handful of individuals and companies who didn’t like the results of those audits. Every time, the suits have been withdrawn or dismissed.

This Case

According to the Notice of Judgment of Acquittal, Nolle Prosequi, Not Guilty, or Dismissal issued by the District Court of Maryland for Montgomery County (Case D‑06‑CR‑25‑027461), the only charge – electronic communication harassment – was nolle prosequi, meaning the prosecutor dropped it. The notice, dated February 17 2026, explicitly recalls any outstanding warrants or detainers. In plain English: the case was thrown out and I am fully cleared.

Key facts:

• Jurisdiction: Maryland District Court, Montgomery County
• Charge description: electronic communication harassment
• Disposition date: February 12 2026 (nolle prosequi)
• Notice issued: February 17 2026

Why I’m Keeping the Record

A public defender mentioned I could expunge the record. I appreciate that option, but I’m choosing to keep it public:

• No need for background‑check clean‑up. I’m not looking for jobs or loans.
• Educational value. Keeping it visible shows how lawfare is used to intimidate and how it fails when you have the facts.
• Transparency. I want others who face similar harassment to see that you can stand up, fight back, and win.

The Pattern

This is just one entry in a longer list of attacks that have all ended the same way: dismissal or withdrawal. Check out my previous posts on:

• The December 16 2025 harassment thread and how repeated, automated emails were used to annoy and intimidate.
• Scammy ad campaigns abusing my name and how we exposed them.
• SEO audits that sparked lawsuits because people didn’t like seeing their numbers in daylight.

Every one of these articles links to original documents, screenshots, and data so you can verify everything for yourself.

Lessons Learned

• Documentation is your shield. Save your emails, PDFs, and data. Evidence wins cases.
• Sunlight is the best disinfectant. Publishing the truth disarms bullies.
• Don’t be scared by legal jargon. Terms like nolle prosequi simply mean the other side gave up.

Conclusion

Lawfare aims to wear down truth‑tellers by forcing them into costly, time‑consuming fights. But when you have the facts, stay calm, and stay transparent, you prevail. This dismissal is another proof point. If you’re under attack for doing the right thing, remember: you’re not alone, and you can win.
