She may be overreacting, but it's not a wrong reaction. | ||

There's a reason why most of the mainstream Korean sites reveal a part of your IP address when you post... To prevent this BS to happen. | ||

I dunno. Can we stop making TL posts on this and just bump one SlayerS_Jessica megathread? TL is starting to get flooded with jessica hating randoms on the internet  | ||

No, but what I mean to say is that it could be blurred out just for the nastiness of the words. That does not mean, however, that the words included threats of bodily harm. This is a very important distinction, at least from my perspective because bodily threats are unacceptable and should be punished by the law. Anything else, in my opinion, should not be punished. As I have said in a previous post, this comes from an American "free speech" perspective. Thus I must acknowledge my bias in this matter. | ||

I guess the community gets to /popcorn as further drama unfolds. Jessica certainly is great for entertainment, but I literally have no respect for her-- she can't keep calm even under the silliest of situations. A frivolous lawsuit is more embarrassing for the slayers name than anything else. | ||

Having said that i do find the situation hilarious. That's true, there is nothing funny. Which is why it's easy to ignore since it's irrelevant. | ||

Second, it doesn't really matter what specific words he had in mind when writing this. It applies to everything you could possibly say. You can't pick and choose which words you want to apply this idea to. One exception may be threatening bodily harm. This is illegal in my country, and I think it should be. | ||

however, this sort of law is easily abused does she need psychological evaluation to prove her case? does she need sponsors to talk about her character? or does she just need a screenshot of a guy swearing in a livestream chatroom? lots of laws are like this. if 2 girls dont like you then they can so easily tell someone you are harrassing them and totally fuck with you. nomatter what the actual circumstances really were. this is why we are sceptical. an unlikely senario (jessica feeling genuinely harrassed/tormented - not just annoyed) combined with a very easy-to-use, open-to-definition and slippery-slope law, also combined with our general knowledge of how harmless and easy to avoid and commonplace net trolls are | ||

Only the courts can do that. BTW, not sure how it's a non sequitur. A non sequitur is a statement that has nothing to do with the argument at hand. | ||
