Ah yes the old using legal processes to quash critics. Nothing to see here, just standard legal practice.

If you can argue that the action was baseless harassment, then do so. Frivolous lawsuits have their own penalties. But you can’t argue with the subpoena process on its face.

Odd, I just kinda did do that. The process here is very clearly being used to try put a cooling effect on criticism, and the anti-SLAP rules only work if someone can afford to pay for litigation (another example of a flawed system).
