Consistent with this, he did not violate it. Secondly, Tucker Carlson did not complain about violations of his rental privacy, he complained about perceived threats against him and his family. Threats that are not supported at all in the text of the original post, or subsequent posts. Of course I don't know about the law, but I'm wondering how appropriate it is for Tucker to claim as fact that the clerk threatened his(Tucker's) family, as this assertion is ver much liable to be damaging to the clerk's reputation.
