....”At least one federal prosecutor has brought criminal charges against a user of a social network who signed up under a pseudonym in violation of terms of service.”..... RRD:I wonder how many political dissidents need be imprisoned,tortured & murdered,to satiate this administrations paranoid desire to know who is saying hurtful things about Obama?Terms of service violations are no more ”crimes” then landlord-tenant disputes.
The most sane way to deal with violators is to simply delete their accounts & block them.But what about threats?Libel?There are already laws against threats & libel.(& Libel,I should note,is not a criminal matter,it is civil matter.)
