ONLINE TARGETING & HARASSMENT


by Aidan Maconachy

(excerpts)

Most internet harassment goes on in chat rooms, messageboards and newsgroups, also via email. Internet law has tightened up since the early free wheeling days when there were very few controls in place. For example it's become a federal crime in the US to anonymously "annoy, abuse, threaten, or harass any person" via internet or other telecommunication systems. So it's on the books, if people choose to go after the bullies.

Depending on the stealth method used, you might be able to acquire additional info about the source of the attack. Legitimate services such as "nslookup" and "tracert" enable users to track hosts, IP addresses and MAC addresses. There are also professional services you can enlist that use the information you provide to dig for additional info. Make sure they operate within the law, as some are little more than hackers-for-hire.

As in any ordinary case of harassment, it's important to build the case and gather the evidence. Don't release any of this material to the person you suspect is behind the abuse, until and if you are prepared to go the distance.

If you are concerned about your privacy and reputation, it may be advisable lower your profile. Often disengagement and non-reaction stops harassment because most cyber trolls and bullies get their jollies from the belief that they are ruining your life.

If there is no hidden history or baggage you are anxious to keep confidential i.e. criminal record or criminal activities, then continue to put your best foot forward.

It really comes down to the individual in the end. If you've nothing to hide - you have nothing to fear except fear itself.


OUR VICTIMS WHO HAVE POSTED THEIR EVIDENCE
(all long but WELL WORTH A READ)

(because they have nothing to hide! their Cyberpaths do!)

Lissa Daly is a Cyberpath

Doug Beckstead: Predator

Masks of Sanity

Jason Capozello


(NOTE: What is really sad is that the Cyberpaths REFUSE to read these sites, or only come to EOPC to 'gather evidence' against their victims or apologize & own their behavior. They refuse because it conflicts with the twisted, whitewashed version of things they want to present to the world.

Wonder who is telling the truth? Ask yourself -- what do the Victims above have to gain by admitting they got sucked in & used? Who tells the SAME story over & over - and WHO keeps rewriting, repositioning and revising their "versions of history?" And what do the Cyberpaths have to lose if the truth is out there?)
