Arizona House Bill 2549, Digital Harassment Legislation

Arizona House Bill 2549 seeks to amend stalking and harassment laws to include any "electronic or digital device." The legislation criminalizes using profane language with the intent to "annoy or offend," which the hosts argue could make most internet commentary illegal in the state. The bill classifies certain digital stalking as a Class 1 misdemeanor or a felony.
