don't fool yourself, people have been harassing and exploiting others without issue long before the internet. the difference is that while the internet can extend their reach the very nature of brings such occurrences to light more often than before.
so while the internet broadens their reach it doesn't always give them more anonymity, if anything their trail is easier to follow by more people, especially law enforcement. people just don't understand the depth of a trail they leave when using the net

There's another key difference that you are completely ignoring. The return on effort invested with internet harassment is much better then the ROI with harassment in the physical world. Sometimes, an improvement in ROI produces a categorically new thing. An automobile is just a horse buggy with a better ROI - yet, for some reason, neither society, nor the law treats them like it did horse buggies.
