[QUOTE="Babagounj, post: 2862924, member: 12952"] [URL="http://www.breitbart.com/tech/2017/05/25/feminists-sue-university-for-failing-to-protect-them-from-mean-internet-comments/"]Feminists Sue University for Failing to Protect Them from Mean Internet Comments - Breitbart[/URL] Feminists United, a student group at the University of Mary Washington, has [URL='https://www.thecollegefix.com/post/32782/']claimed[/URL] in a recently filed lawsuit that the administration failed to protect them from posts made on the anonymous social media app, Yik Yak. The suit alleges that the university failed to protect the students by refusing to ban access to the app via the university’s wifi system. The complaint ignores the reality that most students have access to the app via LTE internet service on their cellular devices, which would render a ban on the university’s wifi system almost worthless. The students claim that the university’s decision to allow students to access the app via the school’s wifi network fostered a hostile environment in which the students were subjected to “overtly and/or sexist/threatening” anonymous messages.
