Reposting defamatory content in Australia can create legal liability even if you did not write the original post. Under Australian defamation law, a person may be treated as a publisher if they participate in making defamatory material available to a new audience, including by sharing, reposting, forwarding, screenshotting, embedding, or otherwise republishing content.
