So now we need to solve a problem in the legal system?

Doesn't it get to a point where you can't solve any problems because of the other systems they're tied to?

How about we just agree from a moral perspective that:

1. Anonymous defamation etc. is cowardly and should be persecuted appropriately.

2. Maintaining reasonable privacy is something we should strive for, and that it should be just as important as #1.

3. A legal system needs to be in place that we can trust to maintain both #1 and #2.

Those are our requirements. Now I'm not saying we're going to solve it right here and now, but thinking about it this way, as a problem requiring a solution and not a big wall we can't get past, definitely isn't going to hurt.
