Internet Trolls Who Set Up Fake Profiles To Humiliate People Could Face Criminal Charges

From the attached UK article: “For example, it may be a criminal offence if a profile is created under the name of the victim with fake information uploaded which, if believed, could damage their reputation and humiliate them."

“In some cases the information could then be shared in such a way that it appears as though the victim has themselves made the statements.”

Interesting.

That also reads as, "it may NOT be a criminal offense..."

I may order the cheeseburger tonight or I may not. Same thing, no?

Meanwhile, this is happening in the United States (not the UK). Ohio, in fact.

People on the Deck, and elsewhere, face criminal charges if they continue their ways.

(2) No person shall knowingly post a text or audio statement or an image on an internet web site or web page for the purpose of abusing, threatening, or harassing another person.

Pretty soon there could only be crickets, clouds and tumble weeds on the Deck...and elsewhere. (or... Pretty soon there may only be crickets, clouds and tumble weeds on the Deck...and elsewhere.

Way too easy! You're slipping. But, I REALLY appreciate the basketball reference.

Mr. Rossen, thank you again for stating your mission, and that of your team. I appreciate your clarity of purpose.

Funny thing is I actually edited down some of it because I referenced "may" or "could" so often that it was too obvious. At least you see the difference in the meanings of the words used. Are you a lawyer?

This is really getting old with you and the others.

What team? Show proof, not speculation.

If you go back to my original posts about the hospital ordeal (I actually came into the discussion when Jim mentioned a Rec Center) you will see just how wrong you and the others are. I know you won't do it because then you will have to prove yourselves wrong. That will look bad on your stellar image.

They must be people from the United Kingdom, otherwise why else would you be citing the UK. So, you tell us, who is it?

The suggestion was made above: "People on the Deck...face criminal charges if they continue their ways... there could only be crickets, clouds and tumble weeds on the Deck."

"These fickle, fuddled words confuse me."

So I ask again: "Who set up fake profiles to humiliate folks?"

Who on the Deck committed the crime you suggest has occurred here on the Deck?

Names?
