Goodbye Off-topic Board

Posted: 3/10/08 at 12:54pm

Kentucky Representative Tim Couch filed a bill this week to make anonymous posting online illegal.

The bill would require anyone who contributes to a website to register their real name, address and e-mail address with that site.

Their full name would be used anytime a comment is posted.

If the bill becomes law, the website operator would have to pay if someone was allowed to post anonymously on their site. The fine would be five-hundred dollars for a first offense and one-thousand dollars for each offense after that.

Because we're MEANIES.

Representative Couch says he filed the bill in hopes of cutting down on online bullying. He says that has especially been a problem in his Eastern Kentucky district.

Rob prepare for bankruptcy.


Why not up internet security. Most people use SNs for that reason.

If he's so worried about bullying, how about making a law criminalizing it in schools?

...So now we're all children who need a nice wrist-slapping when we're being mean?

This makes me want to be meaner to people on internet boards.
I'll start now.

This has to be the single most idiotic idea of the month.

And what are they gonna do if people still "bully" online? Tell their mommies?

So what's to stop me from registering as Artscallion Smith at 123 Main St, Cyberbully, RI?

They can't possibly expect BWW will verify the accuracy of registrations, or be liable if they don't.

Oh tazber. Oh tazber tazber. Now that I have released my inner meanness thanks to all of this..I won't hold back. Better be careful.

OH. Also. What exactly defines "cyber-bullying?" If I call tazber a buttface? If I leave him instructions for suicide?

I totally left out a word in my previous post!

I meant to say "I'm WITH anna (as in agreement), this makes me want to be mean".

Anna could probably kick my pansy ass, I wasn't being bitchy!
