@thetimes: *for news purposes* 🗣️ "Part and parcel of working in the media is receiving unwanted attention and criticism. In the old days it was a few nasty comments below an article or a letter of complaint to an agent. But since the arrival of social media, this type of nastiness has become an entirely different beast altogether. My online stalkers are female, middle aged — and seemingly normal. They’ve written more than 50,000 words abusing me. Now I'm finally standing up to them" | ✍️ Liz Fraser A spokesperson for Tattle Life said: We have a very strict set of rules and a zero-tolerance policy with trolling, abuse, violence and harassment. Anyone that breaks our rules is promptly banned and can’t sign up for a new account. We allow members of the public to hold an opinion on public figures which is important in a free and fair society where the damaging effects of social media are increasingly becoming recognised, while also having a set of rules that are far stricter than any of the big tech social media sites. We have a link on every single page to report content and take every report very seriously. A spokesperson for Mumsnet said: We take reports of personal attacks, harassment and privacy breaches very seriously, and where posts are reported to us as breaking our guidelines, we review and act on them. The last correspondence we can find from Liz Fraser was in January 2024, when she contacted us about two threads. On both occasions, within 24 hours we reviewed the thread, removed posts that breached our guidelines and then removed the thread. We replied confirming this and invited her to get back in touch if she had any further questions or concerns. #online #women #mumsnet #tattlelife #troll
