An opinion piece in BusinessWorld examines the persistent problem of online trolling, citing Merriam-Webster's definition of a troll as someone who posts inflammatory, irrelevant, or provocative messages to disrupt discussions.
The article notes that while the issue is urgent, it is not simple, and many people have an immediate negative reaction to the term "troll" due to its inherently negative connotation.
Despite the complexity, the piece argues that addressing this malignant threat remains a critical challenge for online communities and platforms.
