Defamation, sometimes called "defamation of character", is spoken or written words that falsely and negatively reflect on a living person's reputation.

If a person or the news media says or writes something about you that is understood to lower your reputation, or that keeps people from associating with you, defamation has occurred. Slander and libel are two forms of defamation.

Slander is generally spoken and libel is generally written. Many people call anything online that is false and negative, internet slander.

No matter what you call it, when someone posts lies about you online that tarnish your reputation it is illegal. Suing someone for online defamation is NOT easy and sometime impossible.

In most cases an attorney will collect funds from you and tell you they will attempt to have online defamation resolved, in reality most online defamation cases are lost by attorneys. You may need to reach out to a reputation management firm to fight online defamation from a technical perspective.
