High Court papers obtained by The Mail on Sunday detail how Mrs Scottow is accused of a 'campaign of targeted harassment' against Miss Hayden, allegedly motivated by her 'status as a transgender woman'. The papers claim that, as a 'toxic' debate raged online over plans to allow people to 'self-ID' as another gender, Mrs Scottow tweeted 'defamatory' messages about Miss Hayden. She is also alleged to have used accounts in two names to 'harass, defame, and publish derogatory and defamatory tweets' about Miss Hayden, including referring to her as male, stating she was 'racist, xenophobic and a crook' and mocking her as a 'fake lawyer

Anonymous actually had a whole campaign back in 2011 or 2012 trying to raise awareness of Britain's imminent slide into mass censorship particularly online, but it got lost in the noise of all the other internet battles which were going on that year, ACTA and SOPA in particular. As far as free expression goes, as well as internet freedom, the UK is lost at the moment. Between making certain speech a criminal offense on one hand, and banning certain consensual porn outright because it's deemed socially unacceptable, freedom simply does not exist in the UK. It's a good reason to remind people about opposing Articles 11 and 13 - Western states can and indeed have gone down the road of ruining the internet, it's not like it's an outlandish thing without precedent.
