My previous advise for how cohorts could support the Company need to consider:
“Cyberthreats” can simply mean threatening communications that are conveyed via the Internet,
cellphone, or other digital means. The communication in interstate commerce of threats to harm a personor property, to kidnap a person, or to damage a person’s reputation, is a violation of federal law pursuantto 18 U.S.C. § 875.

2001, 2007 (2015). (For a detailed discussion of this case, see Gretchen Shappert, Elonis v. United States:
Consequences for 18 U.S.C. § 875(c) and the Communication of Threats in Interstate Commerce,
UNITED STATES ATTORNEYS’ BULLETIN (May 2016)).
