It's already been curtailed. Crying crocodile tears about it now won't help, especially doing so in a thread like this where you'll just end up looking like a tosser.Situations like this are precisely why the law exists in the form that it does. Arguing against that just seems churlish.
The fact that we don't have freedom of speech anyway is not an argument against it, nor a defence of further restrictions on it. Teenagers were bullied and committed suicide because of it many years before they had facebook accounts, and I think it is quite right to be highly dubious of new restrictions based on a highly emotive case. The cynical and disrespectful part is proposing more restrictions in such circumstances.

The message is very simple people,
a) Don't behave like a tw@t, and
b) If you know someone who behaves like a tw@t, have the guts to stand up and tell them so.
It's the silence of people who should have spoken up which allows tw@ts to get away with it.
I'd say getting your tits out on the internet and having underage sex behaving like a tt, not that it deserves a death sentence, but you seriously have to look at this child's upbringing, don't you?a) Don't behave like a tw@t, and
b) If you know someone who behaves like a tw@t, have the guts to stand up and tell them so.
It's the silence of people who should have spoken up which allows tw@ts to get away with it.

He deserves everything he gets.
The non blurred out link to his details etc is readily available online. I changed my mind about posting it.

I'm sorry the young girl died but, I don't think that is a valid reason to curtail my freedom of speech. Just because some people can't raise their children properly, I don't think it is justifiable to punish everyone.
It's got precisely zero to do with freedom of speech. A two-year campaign of bullying online and in person, inciting others to harrass and intimidate that person is not freedom of speech, it's bullying. Silver said:

Having seen the original flash pic it is hardly worth all this hassle, if she could not cope with the consequences of her slaginess then I'm sorry but that's her pigeon.
Astounding on so many levels. How naive were you as a 12 year old? Never made any stupid mistakes?and you actually searched for a picture of a 12 year old topless?!

She was someone's child. Perhaps you ought to have a little respect. Mods, probably best just to delete this little creeps account now before he spouts out any more drivel.
If you you look into the pedo's details you will find out why. This is a 30 year old guy that grooms little girls online, they have a whole community out there. Follow the link to the guy and you will see it. They will use lots of sick tricks to snare and coax these little girls into doing what they want.
No doubt the police will be paying him and his sicko mates a visit fairly shortly, would imagine there is a prison cell currently being warmed up as we speak, hopefully next door to 6'4, 500lb lifer that's likes to be called Gloria.

To be fair all I did was google her name and google images gave me the tit pics. They're not showing up now thankfully.
Probably because it'd technically be child porn I guess.
Why did she do it in the first placeProbably because it'd technically be child porn I guess.
Edit:
Looks like the guy's either handed himself in or been arrested:
Looks like he works for facebook too. How embarrassing for them considering that seems to be the medium he used to torture her.
