I sure wouldn't try and argue that a digital lynch mob "killed" HB Gary Federal or this attorney. If you look at these two cases and the resultant internet backlash you'll notice a pattern of escalating the issue at which point they eventually end up backing down once they realize how utterly stupid they look. Then once their incompetence is up for display for all the world to see they claim they where "killed" by a "digital lynch mob". Please excuse me if I'm less then sympathetic.
- freehunter 14y agoWell what is a lynch mob if not a group of people harassing someone (for good or bad) who then is forced to defend themselves (for good or bad) until the group get riled up enough to take them out (in any way, for good or bad)? My argument was that this backlash could cause enough harassment to put the lawyer out of business, in an attempt to refute the parent's claim that a digital lynch mob could not exist on the Internet. I don't claim to be sympathetic to the lawyer's cause, merely trying to hold a reasonable discussion on a web forum by debating new-tech terminology.
