So if you are subjected to an unusual type of harassment, you're on your own?
- tomp 11y agoI guess the idea is, to prevent (or at least discourage) the usual types of harassment up-front, and deal with the more unusual, rare forms on-the-fly as they appear.

- plonh 11y agoIt is very tempting to question the motives of who believes a 0% solution is better than 55% first step.
- stefantalpalaru 11y agoThose are the motives of somebody who believes that no policing at all is better than half-ass policing. We already have organizations that deal with illegal activities. We pay them for it and we give them a monopoly on violence, so why not use them instead of trying to replicate what they do, partially and poorly?
