Trolling is a political scheme to shut down free speech and destroy enterprise. Some blogs show how a large percentage of troll-ism hinders the fair exchange of business. Just google, "How to Prevent Trolls From Shutting Down the Internet" and see what you get. Its a major concern and a threat to our freedom, both on the air and at home.
While trolls have been with mankind since the beginning of time, there is a big difference between accepting them and tolerating them. Accepting them means simply to acknowledge that they exist. To tolerate them means to put up with every thing they do, even at the risk of ruining your business or destroying your reputation. They are not interested in anything you have to say about free speech, because they want to shut down speech. They are not interested in fair play. You have probably seen some of the impersonation blogs about me, with all the stolen personal photographs from my real blog. What they are doing is illegal. These have been traced to the following ISP numbers:
City ISP Map
76.74.255.123 US UNITED STATES TEXAS SAN ANTONIO AUTOMATTIC
76.74.254.123 US UNITED STATES TEXAS SAN ANTONIO AUTOMATTIC
74.200.243.253 US UNITED STATES ILLINOIS CHICAGO LAYERED TECHNOLOGIES INC
74.200.243.251 US UNITED STATES ILLINOIS CHICAGO LAYERED TECHNOLOGIES INC
72.233.2.59 US UNITED STATES TEXAS PLANO LAYERED TECHNOLOGIES INC
72.233.2.58 US UNITED STATES TEXAS PLANO LAYERED TECHNOLOGIES INC
Someone researched these "flame blogs" for me and sent me the following information:
The isp number "72.233.2.58"
"There is an abuse report email abuse@layeredtech.com and matt@mullenweg.com
And an abuse contact telephone number +1-972-398-7998
This number seems to appear - quite alot - on the web as being a number which has been used to raise other complaints (some of a more serious nature, like terrorism)."
These isps come from a feminist blog, which makes accusations against me and other homemaker bloggers. These people have nothing to do all day long except bother other people. This is also a government sponsored harrassment, since some of them are on "public assistance" (welfare.) Some, however, work in high level jobs, such as assistants for lawyers. They give their work to lower-paid people, while they spend the day gossiping on the internet or accusing other people, or meddling. They do not want to make friends with you: they want to destroy you.
If you come across any of these blogs, please find a way to report them. Some action has been taken already, but much more is needed. There are a few other things you can do, if you are heavily attacked by these people. One is to contact their place of work, and report them to someone else in the business. Another is to contact your local law-enforcement agency. You can get more information about this on the web.
If your homemaking blog is being bothered, check your isp reports against the numbers above. There is a big chance it is the same people.
If you have run across these blogs, where apparently "they blush not", please report them to blogger or wordpress.
