I know there are those who believe people should be able to tweet whatever their little evil hearts desire.

Twitter reviewing policies after Robin Williams' daughter harassed(CNN) -- Twitter is looking to revamp its user-protection policies after Zelda Williams, the daughter of comedian Robin Williams, was run off of the social site by abuse in the wake of her father's apparent suicide.
"We will not tolerate abuse of this nature on Twitter," Del Harvey, Twitter's vice president of trust and safety, said in a statement.
