A troll loses his anonymity on the internet and caves like the coward he really is.

It's all about the precedent. Slippery slopes and all that.

Yes that is certainly the main point to grasp concerning this

That's not the point. CNN went after this guy, threatened to expose him, and now the man is pretty much permanently silenced because, if he misbehaves, CNN will publish his personal information for all the world to see.

If you're okay with blackmail then just say you're okay with blackmail.

1st of all, I clicked 1 random page of your post history and found 3 examples of posts that can be taken out of context to make you seem less than you claim you are. I don't have the time or care to dig more but a big corporation with bottomless pockets like, hmmm... CNN, could surely find more. As you said, you post worse than that on TD.

But seriously, if you can't see how a major corporation taking a stranger's posts and - not even posting them entirely and in context - using them to turn the social mobs against that individual then threatening to release his identify to that mob (after getting them all fired up)... if you can't see how scary and freaking irresponsible that is then there is no point in responding.

1) CNN claims it never endorses violence
2) CNN chums the water with clips of "racist" posts edited for brevity, of course
3) CNN threatens to tell pissed off horde identity of offender

What could happen?

Sorry, friend. I really did just hit a random page on your history. No idea what page and no way I'm going digging for it.

It was a Movie & TV Board post. That's all I remember.

As a guy on this board who constantly battles our resident anti-Semites I just want to make it perfectly clear that I support their right to maintain their anonymity and spew forth whatever Free Speech they choose . If you set the precedent to ruin people over internet disputes and disagreements , well frick you.

I despise that little shitstain Rex. And I know exactly who he is IRL. But I would never under any circumstances cause him a moment's real- life stress . People like you Volhalla are fricking dangerous. frick you and frick CNN.

Inquisition officials have announced the sinner has repented for his heresy.

The church has decided to be merciful but if he returns to his sinful ways, he will face judgement.

Is this any different than the attack on Charlie Hebdo?

Let's shift the conversation a bit. What can actually be done about this? From a legal stand point. I'm not talking about 4chan revenge and hell fire...surely something will come of this.

I am going to guess CNN will fire the writer and say that is not acceptable. Really no other choice.

And I am rarely in favor of all the knee jerk reactions to firing people.

I don't know if there is any legal recourse to be taken. It's borderline blackmail in my opinion but I'm pretty sure there is something out there that protects CNN from prosecution.
