A mysogynist troll in Australia has been convicted of the crime of sending offensive messages.
The things that the troll said are nasty and unjustified -- the only one they discredit is him. Their affect on my opinions of Ms Melville and of Ms Newton is to inspire a certain level of sympathy for them.
However, to make this a crime, rather than something deserving of reproach, is an injustice. Freedom of speech must include the freedom to offend people, even intentionally.
The crime in question is limited to use of electronic devices. I am not a lawyer and certainly not an Australian lawyer, but if this crime was introduced as a new restriction for electronic communications, it causes the transition from commnicating in person to commnicating digitally to imply a loss of rights.
