BBC – twitter man wins appeal on “banter”
Yay, some common sense
“If the person or persons who receive or read it, [the message] or may reasonably be expected to receive, or read it, would brush it aside as a silly joke, or a joke in bad taste, or empty bombastic or ridiculous banter, then it would be a contradiction in terms to describe it as a message of a menacing character.”
Good news for on here as well – provided we stick to “bad taste”, “empty bombast” and “ridiculous banter”
Business as usual, then 😀
