The shadowy figure running Tattle Life—a notorious gossip forum often accused of enabling online harassment—has finally been exposed. Sebastian Bond (aka Bastian Durward) was outed as the site's publisher after losing a defamation lawsuit brought by an Irish couple. The court had already ruled against the platform in 2023, but this is the first time the operator's identity has been publicly confirmed.

Editor’s Note: This isn't just about one lawsuit—it's a rare crack in the armor of anonymous toxicity. For years, forums like Tattle Life have operated with near impunity, letting users trash people (often women and public figures) without accountability. Naming the operator could set a precedent for holding platforms—not just individual trolls—responsible for enabling defamation. It’s a small win for those fighting back against digital witch hunts.

British tennis star Katie Boulter has opened up about the disturbing online abuse she and other players face, including death threats targeting her family. In a candid interview with BBC Sport, the world No. 30 described how toxic messages have become an ugly norm in professional tennis, with nothing seeming "off the cards" for trolls anymore.

Editor’s Note: When even elite athletes aren’t safe from vicious online attacks—despite their public platforms—it’s a stark reminder of how unchecked social media toxicity has become. Boulter’s decision to speak out puts a spotlight on the very real mental toll this takes on players, far beyond just "trolling." It’s not just about sports; it’s about how we handle (or fail to handle) abuse in digital spaces.
