How should online harassment be tackled?

Victoria Derbyshire looks at the issue of online harassment and how it should be dealt with.
It comes after the Chief Constable of Durham, Mike Barton, said Facebook and Twitter do not police their sites properly and are to blame for an increasing police workload. He said the sites should be banning trolls instead of allowing the victim to be hounded.
Joining the discussion are Kevin Healey, who had his online identity cloned, Richard Lee, whose family were harassed online by someone pretending to be their missing daughter, Callum Carr, who has been bullied online but didn't report it because he thought it might make matters worse, Steve Kuncewicz, a social media lawyer and Rory Cellan-Jones the 麻豆官网首页入口's technology correspondent.
