I didn't even know this was going on. The verdict came out today.
Short version of story: feminist activist wants to hire (well, he was going to work for free as it's a charitable initiative) graphic designer for new initiative. Meets with accused. They go back and forth over whether he's going to do the work. Meanwhile feminist activist tweets about other guy who makes offensive video game, and tries to incite internet mob to destroy him. Feminist activist and friend announce they're going to "sic the internet" on game creator. Accused says this isn't right, feminist activist blocks him.
Large scale internet flame war ensues, involving much invective and e-rage. Feminist activist somehow convinces police to charge accused with criminal harassment for tweeting too much about her, and this incident, on twitter with other twitter users. Crown somehow decides to take this case to trial.
What in the actual f###? Unbelievable that this thing wasn't laughed out of the police station, or Court.
