Don’t lol – Cyberbullying is No Joke in Congress

On September 30, the House Judiciary Committee heard testimony
concerning two bills aimed at combating cyberbullying. One bill, the
Megan Meier Cyber Bullying Prevention Act, would criminalize
cyberbullying, while the other, the Adolescent Web Awareness Requires
Education (“AWARE”) Act would provide funding to schools to teach
children about cybercrime, including awareness about cyberbullying.
Ars Technica explains that experts at the hearing expressed concerns
that the language of the Megan Meier Act would create free speech
concerns and be hard to police, though they generally agreed that the
AWARE Act took steps in the right direction to combat cyberbullying
conduct.
