You do understand that this and all your names are now being reported to CyberSCAN. Maybe you should learn something about the laws against this sort of thing in Nova Scotia.

 

 

 

Under the new law

Victims can file complaints with the new CyberSCAN unit (or) seek a protection order from the Justice of the Peace Centre.

Protection/prevention orders can be issued to stop the bullying. These orders can:

 

    prohibit contact with the person being bullied;

    prohibit or restrict the use of electronic communications;

    prohibit or restrict internet access; or

    result in electronic devices being confiscated.

 

Victims can sue cyberbullies for damages. Parents can also be held liable for damages if the cyberbully is a minor.

Parents of minor victims can take action on their child's behalf.

People who spread damaging material can be sued, even if they didn't initiate the cyberbullying.

CyberSCAN can refer cases to police for criminal investigation.
