WONDERFUL!!! At long last, some precedent has been set for this type of harassment!
“Online harassment” is so rampant that it’s become a culture. People can (and, DO) engage in behaviors that they would NEVER act-out in Real Life because they would be arrested, and sued. The interwebs provide anonymity that is astonishing, and attempting to involve Law Enforcement in taking action is like trying to teach a cat how to knit – it’s useless.
Skeery stuff, and I’m happy to read that there is some progress being made on this issue.
Yea, score one for the good guys!
