I would really like to get him out of my life. States are starting to tighten stalking and harassment laws. Maybe you can get a Peace Order to stop the harassment. It should be easier if the person is a danger to himself or others. For example, Maryland increased coverage of stalking and harassment to include emails and text in its criminal code section 3-803. The new law in Maryland took effect April 1, 2020. http://mgaleg.maryland.gov/mgawebsite/Laws/StatuteText?article=gcr&section=3-803&enactments . Microsoft and the botnet operating at Sharepoint Online are getting ready to learn about Maryland's expanded laws the hard way. They have been served a demand letter by certified mail. The request for a Peace Order is coming soon. One of the nice things about Maryland's law is service providers only receive safe harbor in some circumstances from persons. They don't enjoy safe harbor from botnets. And in other circumstances (like stalking and harassment) they don't receive safe harbor.

Along with introducing these enhanced capabilities, the question of the privacy and security of employee personally identifiable information ("PII") and protected health information ("PHI") continues to loom. https://www.natlawreview.com/article/privacy-and-security-considerations-employers-grappling-introducing-social -- Bill Horne Telecom Digest Moderator ------------------------------ ********************************************* End of telecom Digest Thu, 29 Oct 2020
