Over the years I have seen numerous attempts at addressing the serious problems in computer crime with new laws. Well-intentioned, I know, but all too many of these attempts are flawed. The latest is from Nova Scotia:
http://nslegislature.ca/legc/bills/61st_5th/1st_read/b061.htm - Bill 61 http://www2.macleans.ca/2013/08/08/nova-scotias-awful-cyber-abuse-law-makes- bullies-of-us-all/ or http://is.gd/JR0bjt Commentary "The definition of cyberbullying, in this particular bill, includes any electronic communication that ought reasonably be expected to humiliate another person, or harm their emotional well-being, self-esteem or reputation." Well, all I can say is that everyone in this forum better be really careful what they say about anybody else. (Oh, $#!+. Did I just impugn the reputation of the Nova Scotia legislature?) ====================== (quote inserted randomly by Pegasus Mailer) rsl...@vcn.bc.ca sl...@victoria.tc.ca rsl...@computercrime.org Those who can, do.
