If you didn't pay money for it, it's not legal advice.



You might want to tell pro bono lawyers that. They've been giving free legal advise for some time now.


This isn't a courtroom; they use agreements. I could be parsey to hunt down and list all the exceptions, but my point is true for the general case of legal discussions on the Internet. "If you have no client relationship with the person offering the advice" just seemed kind of clunky, you know?
