the Court has created a path for those with the resources to identify stochastic terrorists and hold them accountable to do exactly that and recover their costs in court.

lol no and lmao no to the bolded

edit: omg didn't realize this quote was the lawyer at first, no she did not win anything for the non-crime of stochastic terrorism especially because this wasn't an example the guy did it all himself and then didn't even present a defense of any kind

Good. This becomes a precedent for future harassment

Well this sounds like a good precedent in these times when racists and homophobes are trying to force their will on every major corporation.

Almost $400k to be a racist fuckstick. Hope this sets a precedent going forward against these assholes who think they can threaten employees with no consequences.

I hope this means companies like Target take the bigoted fucks who harass their employees over pride displays to court.

Nice, now more game companies can just refer to this case to win theirs.

lol no

I actually hope that Bungie in good faith re-invest the money back into the recovery and livelihood of their employees tbh. Racist attacks and trauma, especially when compounded with a lifetime of racism and discrimination has a compounding effect that absolutely ruins people's lives, and every dollar possible for their recovery and support is necessary to bring people back from the brink that it sends them to. If you want productive employees to keep on making money for you, you better invest in them and remove as many obstacles as possible so that they do not continue to be disadvantaged.

lol

 Cohen is an anti-LGBTQ woman hater who attacks his ex-wife on social media during their ongoing court cases and claims he went through the process of registering copyrights to pictures of his children so he could sue people for making fun of them online. (IIRC, he also once attempted to buy Kiwi Farms from Null.)

And like Alex Jones, the person didn't even make a defense:

The guy was not guilty of racism or anything like that, he personally was calling the people, ordering pizzas to their house and then calling them again to ask about the pizzas, all of which is standard harassment literally nothing any of the idiots above seem to think this case was about, especially since this was not online harassment except that he used an internet phone to make the calls: https://drive.google.com/file/d/14s3qU7K78oeSvWW1YL8RD3cofI-7mCaU/view

But never the less, unlike in other ResetERA.com threads, everyone's celebrating the guy being in debt for life to a video game company:

Good on Bungie for this. Put the fear of god (or perpetual poverty) in these clowns.

hope that fuckin puts him in debt forever

What happens next? Wage garnishment (assuming he’s got a job besides being a piece of shit)

This is amazing

You love to see it.

Good shit

fucked around and definitely found out.

More of this, please.

They're already salivating at the idea of financial legal consequences for people they don't like who are exactly like them:

good. There needs to be hard consequences for harassers who hide behind computer screens.

I love seeing accountability!!! Hopefully this acts as a deterrent from others who think anonymity is a one way street allowing them to disrespect whoever. Hold more people responsible for their behavior.

A dickhead on the internet actually gets hit with punishment, nice.

One troll (registered Oct 2017 so likely a Russian infiltrator) sneaks in though:

Well, let's hope it doesn't backfire when companies start defending bigots.

Not defending harassment, just that there is no clear definition of what constitutes (online) harassment.
