My initial post in this message thread included an inline link to an image of Ted Todd on
PolygraphPlace.com. Ralph Hilliard, the proprietor of that website, demanded that I remove the link, arguing that such linking violated his copyright. I disagreed, and declined to remove the link.
Then Mr. Hilliard then came up with a Very Clever Idea. He placed a new image on PolygraphPlace.com with the same URL as the original image of Mr. Todd:
http://www.polygraphplace.com/images/aapptedtodd.jpg which now displays the following message:
Quote:Warning: Question what you read on Antipolygraph.org.
Antipolygraph.org is not about the "truth" about polygraph. It is a personal campaign to undermine the use of a legitimate tool that helps keep criminals off the street, sexual offenders from offending again and unqualified persons out of jobs where they would likely abuse their authority.
Don't be fooled!
The image of Ted Todd, who made the false and misleading claim that a good polygraphist will catch countermeasures every time, has been re-named and may now be viewed here:
http://www.polygraphplace.com/images/georgeyoucantusethispicture.jpg Well, you win, Mr. Hilliard! The in-line link to Mr. Todd's picture has been removed, and I have replaced it with the above text link.
Since you have stated that AntiPolygraph.org "is not about the 'truth' about polygraph," perhaps you would care to tell us precisely what information on AntiPolygraph.org you believe to be untrue? While the
PolygraphPlace.com message board is censored, and polygraph critics like myself are prevented from posting there, AntiPolygraph.org is not afraid of open debate, and you are welcome to post any criticisms you may have directly here.
Tell us, Mr. Hilliard, when Mr. Todd claimed that a good polygraphist will catch countermeasures every time, was he telling the truth? Why do you suppose Mr. Todd has thus far declined to publicly defend his publicly made claim?
