Community service and maybe a 4-figure fine would have sufficed. But Britain's idiotic judges elevated Facebook to real world level and felt they had to make an example out of him. Suicides happen all the time and Facebook pages aren't made. They don't need to be made and they can be deleted. | ||

The court should invest more time into doing investigation about his condition. If it is true that this troll is antisocial and that he has Asperger's syndrome, jail time will prove to be of no use whatsoever. | ||

If you mock the WTC bombing do you go to jail? If you mock the death of ANY one should you go to jail for it? That's an insane president to set that, if you mock some thing that hurts some ones feelings, you can go to jail. It's just downright frightening. | ||

One of my practicum schools had an officer come to talk about their online activity (For a demonstration of how easy students are with their information, I think through social engineering, he starting a day or two before and he had become facebook friends with 50 students and had the cell number of 10 or so.) His talk was pretty balanced and really centred around all the creative uses of the internet. However, the one thing that really got him riled up was having to deal with the aftermath of young students committing suicide over online (and real-life) harassment. I also don't think he has the 'right' to deface someone's memorial page anymore then he would have the right to disrupt a funeral at a cemetery. Both are public places, but it just isn't done, son. | ||

That's an insane president to set that, if you mock some thing that hurts some ones feelings, you can go to jail. It's just downright frightening. I think there is a growing movement toward accountability for internet speech. Believe it or not, LOTS of western countries don't think words should be as consequence free as Americans do. Many western countries regulate hate speech and verbal harassment with an understanding that they can be distinguished from criticism and art. | ||

What this douchebag did was wrong, but jail? No way. @MozzarellaL:In Denmark, and several other European countries, you will only be jailed if you threaten someone seriosly and repeadetly or if you scream "IVE GOT A BOMB" when youre at the airport. Just saying. | ||

That's an insane president to set that, if you mock some thing that hurts some ones feelings, you can go to jail. It's just downright frightening. If you mock it by writing your own blog, ok, you're a dick but yeah it's protected. If you mock it by deliberately going about and saying "LOL LOOK AT YOUR DAD/HUSBAND JUMP OUT OF THIS BUILDING IN FLAMES ARRR SO HOT" while posting a .gif to the children/wife's facebook of said Dad that jumped out, you are deliberately going out of your way to cause mental anguish by contacting them and harassing them. Especially if you do it repeatedly. If you did it once you might be able to get away with it, since harassment is usually defined as having it be "persistent" with said intent, which was the case in this particular situation. | ||
