This is a list of laws that I feel are broken by the activity of Electronic Harassment. They will vary depending on location except in the case of the UN charters.
There are also Mental Health laws that are broken regularly by all psychiatrists. The Mental Health Act 1994 (New Brunswick, Canada) states that any patient, including an involuntary patient, has the absolute right to refuse any psychiatric treatment. People are routinely made to undergo forced drugging and incarceration.
