or are highly intimidating; engaging in other online activities that

Cyberstalking is the use of the Internet or other electronic means to
stalk or harass an individual, a group of individuals, or an
organization. It may include false accusations, monitoring, making
threats, identity theft, damage to data or equipment, the solicitation
of minors for sex, or gathering information in order to harass. The
definition of "harassment" must meet the criterion that a reasonable
person, in possession of the same information, would regard it as
sufficient to cause another reasonable person distress.[1]


There seems to be some confusion about what constitutes cyber-stalking.
Since no threats of harm or posting private information that would put
anyone in danger, no crime was committed. If one does not want private
information available to others, they should follow the advice of the
experts, and not post and publish private information in a public forum.
Especially when the only objective in posting in the private forum is
to insult and inflame others.

If Don White doesn't want to read any message from Tosk, it is very easy
to not read rec.boats, or to filter Tosk. Don White's personal
information has been easily available to anyone interested for years.
Don White posted the information himself. Don White has been warned for
many years that it was not prudent to publish his personal information
in a public forum, he decided not to follow the advice of experts. In
reality, Don White thought and made numerous posts stating that everyone
should be required to publish their real name and address to be able to
make a post in rec.boats. Based upon the actions and posts made by Don
White no reasonable person would consider this to be sufficient
information to cause a reasonable person distress.

Well, Donnie might be in distress.. Can you imagine how frekin'
embarrassed he is now ?

I'm glad he finally got his son to leave. He must have taken up half of
that house.
