Court: Cyberbullying Threats Are Not Protected Speech

Because I am a victim of a convicted cyberstalker, (King County Superior Court Criminal Case No. 10-1-10211-2, and anti-harassment Order No. 10-2-04392-60), these issues come up frequently, so I am learning quite a bit about protected speech and Cyberstalking/Cyberbullng.

“A California appeals court ruled this week that threatening posts made by readers of a website are not protected free speech, allowing a case charging the posters with hate crimes and defamation to proceed.

The case raises fundamental questions about cyberbullying and the line between online speech and hate crimes.”
