People who spread hate speech online should definitely be on the lookout. IPS' can be tracked.
"Hate speech" is whatever offends the most sensitive snowflake on the internet. What really makes me have a chuckle about "hate speech", especially on the internet, is that it's entirely up to the person who's offended to even engage with it or not. People would be better off just deleting their social media and not pay any attention to it at all, rather than purposely seeking out that which offends you for the sole purpose of being offended

We are headed in a very dangerous direction with this hate speech nonsense.
Soon criticizing the government will be enough to get a visit from law enforcement.
In the UK it already is. Being a Holocaust denier in France will land you in jail.

On Reddit the Law Society offered the clarification that the lawyers were worried about her since she was reaching out in private messages and saying just really bizarre things. The Police went to check and make sure she was ok. It's blowing up into something that it isn't because it's what some people want to hear.

Anti semites should be charged with hate speech.

A Canadian law that aims to make social media platforms "safer" is getting flak for what some decry as government overreach.

The Online Harms Act, or Bill C-63, would allow judges to imprison adults for LIFE if they advocate for "genocide."

The law would also allow a provincial judge to impose house arrest and a fine if there were reasonable grounds to believe a defendant “will commit” an offense – a provision Wall Street Journal columnist Michael Taube likened to the 2002 film, The Minority Report.

Maragaret Atwood, author of The Handmaid’s Tale, has criticized the bill as “Orwellian":
