Will new online bullying laws impact sex workers?

The federal government is introducing strict new online bullying laws, designed to stop trolls.

The problem is, they powers are too broad. The legislation will see sex workers, who advertise legitimately online, removed from most platforms. Lucie B is a QLD-based sex worker. She says it will impact her ability to make an honest living. Jarryd Bartle is a lawyer specialising in this space. He says the new laws are being prepared without adequate consultation.

We’re all for stopping online bullying, but not if it’s at the expense of a totally legitimate industry.
