Default Annoying someone over the internet is now a crime

In the US it's now illegal to annoy someone over the internet if you do not give you real full name.

However, everyone knows my real full name

I heard about this but the only problem is they use the words "intent to annoy" what is annoying to one person may not be to another. Also it is not easy to prove intention.

This is actually a very wise law. School's with this rule are much better off according to tests.

Yea... When most of the students stay up to 1:00-2:00 in the morning and go to school at 6:30 and class starts at 8:00.... Sure they will do much better when they go to sleep.... Most of my first hour class goes to sleep if they don't have a coke or something with caffiene in it....
