re: proposed Arizona anti-Troll law... would you be more in favor of this if it were restricted to email?

Given that it's updating an existing law about harassing people via telephone, I get the sense it's intention is to combat one-on-one cyberbullying (not just 'being a dick on the internet'), with the 'lewd and obscene' maybe added as an afterthought.

Thoughts?

- I don't know much about it, but not having a law that covers the web is problem in some cases. - the liioulu with whatever Apr 3, 16:36
- Oh, I'm not defending the law, I just think the intention of it is being misread. - Dr.Vermin Apr 3, 16:36
