Please Support The Shutdown of Anonymous Cyberbullying Service "College ACB" - April 9th 2011, 10:50 PM

There is an out of control website called College ACB which was made to allow anyone to anonymously post things about students in over 500 colleges, and needless to say people are using it primarily for cyberbullying and degrading others. Their mission statement even goes sadistically in depth into describing the "rights" of anyone to say anything they want to say without facing repercussions. Judging from the news stories this appears to be quite worse than Formspring, especially because often the victims have no willful participation on the site.

Please support Drew University's boycott and petition to the New Jersey Attorney General, as well as to request to your college's administration (if applicable) or state's government to join in and have this site shut down.

Here's a news story describing the petition:

I think websites like that should be shut down anyways. What's the point of degrading others and spreading lies and rumors via a website?

Absolutely ridiculous.

I'm all for freedom of speech, but there's a line.

I'm not in the States myself, but I hope this works out the way you guys want it.

Good luck,
