I went to school just at the cusp of digital bullying. A yahoo group was set up specifically to bully one kid in my class. It was shut down by yahoo, but I think because it was hosting porn, not because it was mostly designed for bullying people.
This was in the days of shared computers, and no real notifications. Now the bully is in your pocket.
I don't know what the equitable answer is. out right banning is wrong. But we do need to significantly more to allow people to escape bullying.
