I dont know how other countries laws are when it comes to online bullying,but here in canada
people should be aware that some forms of online bullying are considered criminal acts. Under the Criminal Code of Canada, it is a crime to communicate repeatedly with someone if your communication causes them to fear for their own safety or the safety of others.
It's also a crime to publish a "defamatory libel" - writing something that is designed to insult a person or likely to injure a person's reputation by exposing him or her to hatred, contempt or ridicule.
A cyber bully may also be violating the Canadian Human Rights Act, if he or she spreads hate or discrimination based on race, national or ethnic origin, colour, religion, age, sex, sexual orientation, marital status, family status or disability.
In a recent blog made on SKYROCK, a few bullies decided to totaly bash a certian person and his family and friends,including myself. Thanks to me and a few others,we had the blog deleated. Mayb in there country they can get away with things like that,but if they were here in canada.they would more than likely be sitting in jail waiting for a court trial.
STOP THE BULLIES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I can say for sure that you ppl are watchin my blog and most likely planning somthing else to bash the person and persons you did in your last blog. Well news flash dudes!!!!!!!!!!!! Dont even go there with me,You wont get off so lightly the next time and thats not a threat. Thats a PROMISE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Laugh all you want. I really dont care.The only thing you guys accomplished last time was showing everyone how stupid and imature you can act.
