Soft violence crimes usually refer to the psychological oppression and harm of others through non-violent means, such as verbal threats, harassment, defamation, rumor-spreading, etc. This type of crime is characterized by the fact that it does not involve direct physical violence, but causes harm to the victim through psychological and social effects.
Cyber troll crimes often involve a large amount of false information and false statements, which can have a serious impact on the victim's reputation and mental health, and may even lead to the breakdown of the victim's social relationship and economic losses. Therefore, to a certain extent, cyber troll crime can be regarded as a soft violence crime, because it attacks and oppresses individuals or organizations at the psychological level through indirect means, such as the manipulation of cyber**.
However, whether cyber trolls commit crimes constitute soft violence still needs to be judged in conjunction with specific legal provisions and judicial practice. Different countries and regions have different definitions and punishment standards for cybercrimes, so the characterization and punishment of cyber trolls will also be different.
In short, cyber troll crime is an organized crime carried out using online platforms, which may involve the characteristics of soft violence crimes, but whether it is a soft violence crime needs to be determined in accordance with relevant laws and judicial interpretations. With the continuous expansion of cyberspace and the continuous evolution of cybercrime methods, relevant laws also need to be constantly updated and improved to better deal with new forms of cybercrime such as cyber troll crimes.
