Summary<br/>In an in-depth investigation of a problem that is too often trivialized by lawmakers and the media, Citron exposes the startling extent of personal cyber-attacks and proposes practical, lawful ways to prevent and punish online harassment. She reveals the serious emotional, professional, and financial harms incurred by victims. Persistent online attacks disproportionately target women and frequently include detailed fantasies of rape as well as reputation-ruining lies and sexually explicit photographs.<br/>The author examines the controversies surrounding cyber-harassment, arguing that it should be considered a matter for civil rights law and that social norms of decency and civility must be leveraged to stop it.<br/>Most Internet users are familiar with trolling - aggressive, foul-mouthed posts designed to elicit angry responses in a site's comments. Less familiar but far more serious is the way some use networked technologies to target real people, subjecting them, by name and address, to vicious, often terrifying, online abuse. In an in-depth investigation of a problem that is too often trivialised by lawmakers and the media, Danielle Keats Citron exposes the startling extent of personal cyber-attacks and proposes practical, lawful ways to prevent and punish online harassment. A refutation of those who claim that these attacks are legal, or at least impossible to stop, Hate Crimes in Cyberspace reveals the serious emotional, professional, and financial harms incurred by victims.<br/>Contents<br/>Digital hate<br/>How the Internet's virtues fuel its vices<br/>The problem of social attitudes<br/>Civil rights movements, past and present<br/>What law can and should do now<br/>Updating the law to enhance the accountability of harassers<br/>Extending legal reform to site operators and employers<br/>"Don't break the Internet" and other free speech concerns<br/>Silicon valley, parents, and schools.<br/>pt.
