I strongly disagree with Rowling's bizarre obsession but she faced months of death threats while Twitter looked the other way.

She was receiving death threats on Twitter and Twitter was not taking action against those users? Do you have any sources for that?
Do you have any sources for Twitter not taking actions against users that sent death threats to JK Rowling?
Yes, they are all still online, even the verified accounts.
Death threats from the right people that’s the difference. Twitter supports those people, so they can stay.

That’s why this whole Parker debacle is hypocritical.
