Stopping trolling is the same. People will always troll. If there’s a text input on a site, it will get trolled.

When's the last time you saw someone smoking a cigarette?

10 minutes ago? I get your point though, smoking has gone down. Would you be open to raising taxes on trolling?

No one needs to change anything. The internet existed for years without this being an issue.

If you encounter someone on the internet who is annoying you, most platforms give you the option to block them. You do that, then move on with your life. It's not hard.

The internet did not exist in its present form, extent of influence, flexibility, etc., without this being an issue for any length of time. Don't lie to yourself.
