Supreme Court Weighs When Online Speech Becomes an Illegal Threat
http://j.mp/1dm1wSK (Wired)
"The Supreme Court is being asked to decide when an online threat
becomes worthy of prosecution, in what could be the first internet
speech case to reach the high court's docket for the 2013-2104 term
beginning next month. The justices are weighing whether to review the
prosecution of an Iraq war veteran handed 18 months (.pdf) in prison
for singing in a 2010 YouTube video that he would kill a local
Tennessee judge if the judge did not grant him visitation rights to
his young daughter."
