Is weird how literally anybody who insults someone over the internet is labelled a "troll" now.
I'm completely out of the loop, what is this woman meant to have done?

She hid under a bridge and demanded a fee to cross it

She has done exactly what thousands of others have done and questioned what actually happened to Maddy.
However she went a bit OTT but to hound her to kill herself is pretty shit and in a country that prides itself on freedom of speech as well.

mashed,
I don't know the ins and outs, but from what was shown, none of it was as bad as the trolls saying "burn in hell" and "get a terrorist to kill the mccanns".
This was a quick easy target to find. Although distasteful, I don't think it was illegal.
I'm sure we will find out more

"Trolling" used to be a term used to mean people who go onto forums and post wind-ups in order to get reactions and cause arguments, was largely completely inoffensive usually.
Then the press started using it to mean people who posted loads of really nasty abuse at dead people and send racially abusive tweets to footballers and stuff.
Now it just seems to mean absolutely anyone who manages to piss someone off via the internet.
Just curious what bracket this woman's "crime" has fitted into.

Fucking hell, comparing people saying nasty stuff online to someone who killed a child? The British press really does go full retard sometimes don't it.

Based on the photo with the article, maybe they're calling her a troll because she actually looked like one?
PS Does this comment mean I'm a troll now?

I am not finding the 21st century much to my taste.
Today it's the McCanns you are not allowed to criticise.
How soon until it's politicians?

Going by that, she didn't actually say much wrong at all.
This is a press that fuels genuine death threats toward Josie Cunningham and made Jade Goody's funeral a national theatre.
Fuck sake.

Can we answer the important question.
Can the McCanns still claim compensation from the troll's estate? Freehold on a bridge could be worth a bit

It's a malicious creature spreading negativity and mistrust, and a good term that applies to literature in general just as much as the internet.
