About 40% of those who responded to their most recent event took numerous actions, from direct confrontation to interaction with law police. One-fourth of the respondents were still unsatisfied with the results of their inquiry. People themselves have a very weak power toward harassment on the internet.

This article illustrates different ways of regulating online hate speech, using the case of France as an example.The government should introduce relevant laws and regulations as soon as possible to address the characteristics of Internet communication at this stage, strictly define the difference between freedom of expression and criminal acts such as infringement of others’ privacy, and use clear legal provisions to restrain and sanction vicious incidents of Internet violence, so that the behaviour of Internet users can be based on law and the freedom of expression of Internet users can be truly protected.
