This is hideous. Have parts of society always been this bad but were hidden away until the internet came? Tennis player Boulter reveals scale of online abuse https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/tennis/articles/cj42rvdk2k4o
Probably. The internet has given these types of people a platform they would never have had otherwise. They are a despicable excuse for a human being.
This is the problem with society, people think they can say what they want without any repercussions, freedom of speech is one thing, but abusing that right has to stop. When your speech is affecting others by either threats or abuse then you should be held accountable and publically named, shamed and prosecuted.
Crazy that some of the comments almost appear to have been sent unconsciously. Type out some ****e and hit send without a second's thought: Boulter says she has occasionally engaged with those who have sent her abuse, in an effort to get them to think about what they have said. She says: "I've just tried to send them a nice message [so] maybe they can take a second and look at themselves and go: 'Oh, well maybe I shouldn't have sent that.' "Sometimes the replies I actually get from that is them saying: 'Oh no, I'm a huge fan. I'm so sorry. I didn't want to send you that stuff, but it was emotional, I didn't mean to. You know, I still support you. I think you're amazing.' "They don't realise sometimes what they've actually said to these people."

Before it went down there was a warning bar saying they were experiencing a Denial of Service attack so expect some delays, however does look like it's taken it down altogether. How long did it take them to get it back up last time?
