I gave up reporting on major sites where I saw abuse. Stuff that if you said that in public, also witnessed by others, you've be investigated. Twitter was also bad for responding to reports with "this doesnt break our rules" when a) it clearly did and b) probably a few laws.
Laws vary between countries. A lot of stuff that doesn't break US countries will ersily break the laws of multiple european countries.
Laws against threats to kill, rape and assault tend to be pretty constant across the world.. 🤷♂️
Americans online regularly tell me that that's protected free speech down there! Haha
