Britain threatens Internet 'trolls' with two years in jail

[Pernicious]

People found guilty of Internet "trolling" in Britain could be jailed for up to two years under government proposals outlined on Sunday, following a number of high-profile cases of abusive and threatening behaviour on Twitter.


Justice Secretary Chris Grayling told the Mail on Sunday newspaper: "This is a law to combat cruelty -- and marks our determination to take a stand against a baying cyber-mob."

So it went from you did a search on troll to "iceman reimagined troll", and you decide to add a picture to a thread for no reason, which just happens to be another members avatar? I'm not buying it.

Don't ever call me a liar. You seem to be attracted to the trolls. Did any of them ever support the site? Run along - I fought for free speech and I will not have you or anyone telling me what pictures, articles and opinions I post. You seem to favor vulgarity over creativity. I will still leave my auto-pay donation intact.

It's not auto-pay, it was a one time donation, which is being refunded to you momentarily. Many members contribute to the site. But it doesn't garner one special treatment, nor to be used as a prop in posts as in "look, I made a donation, did THEY make a donation..."
