"What we can do is continue to live with love every day. To show gentleness and compassion to everyone, including ourselves. To reject their venom wholesale, and be wholly, independently who we’re meant to and want to be."

For my Illinois fellow Tuskers: want to let y'all know about harassment I'm getting on #instagram from a company calling itself Illinois Community. Every time I post they have a bot account from their address soliciting their promotional services.
Just want to go on blast w/it in case others here are getting it, too. I report them and get nothing, even asked them directly to stop. They said OK, then ramped it up. Word to the wary.
They also traffic as Illinois Family.

Take-home message from the #UUKTackling webinar:
Universities should have clear #OnlineHarassment policies that use the correct terminology, good reporting structures, professionally trained staff at all levels, and embed education/training for students within their curriculum.

I think a lot of #Americans would benefit from #learning their nation's #laws in regard to #libel, #slander, and #cyberstalking, especially on a federal level (eg; across state lines). Some of you have only avoided prison because your victims don't know their rights.

I have an elderly relative who is being #bullied on #facebook. They are terrified of this person, but seem under their #control. They are scared to talk to person. Another relative blocked the profile, but they just created another. What are the options in this situation? Obviously the elderly relative is scared to break the contact as they think the person will shame them online, but their #MentalHealth is suffering.
What options are available #tech people?
