I'll be brief.
I'm just wondering some stuff about internet law and how it applies to internet forums (not this one, by the way).
Do the forum owners and administrators have an obligation to protect forum users from participants they know to be dangerous and troublesome (insultive, abusive, disruptive, divisive, bombarding others with unsolicited hate e-mail and so forth)?
Are participants that behave in that manner subject to any restraints of the law, such as Disturbing the Peace, or Assault, which would apply if the offense was in person?
