Every day, both kids and adults experience online bullying. Awareness may be up, but unfortunately so are the incidents of harassment. How many more tortured young kids will choose to take their own lives, rather than face the insecure bullies who get pleasure from ruining theirs?
Hunter Moore from the now defunct isanyoneup.com is probably one of the Internet’s most notorious offenders. Hunter is a self-admitted bully with a long history of outrageous behavior. On ABC Nightline, he proclaimed to be a “professional life ruin-er.” When confronted by the Village Voice about a pending FBI investigation against him, Moore stated the following. "I will literally f*cking buy a first class f*cking plane ticket right now, eat an amazing meal, buy a gun in New York and f*cking kill whoever said that. I will burn down f*cking the Village Voice headquarters if you f*cking write anything saying I have an FBI investigation." And lets not forget about his comment to Gawker during an interview, and I quote, “I’m gonna sound like the most evil motherf***er-let’s be real for a second: If somebody killed themselves over being on the site do you know how much money I’d make? At the end of the day, I do not want anybody to hurt themselves. But if they do? Thank you for the money.”
Back in April of this year, I convinced Hunter to shut down his now-infamous “isanyoneup.com” revenge porn website for a nominal fee. Hunter was so convincing that he was going to turn over a new leaf and be an advocate against bullying, especially underage bullying. Within 72 hours of that transaction being complete, Hunter was on Twitter cyberbullying kids worse than ever before. Telling kids that they should “kill themselves” using vulgar, racist language and advocating more violence and revenge.
I should have known that his attention would eventually turn to me. And turn it did. Moore, starved for attention, went on an online rampage accusing me (amongst other things) of being a pedophile. I was with my wife and two baby boys when his defamatory tweets came through. I shudder to think what the Marine in me might have done if Hunter was standing right in front of me. But you know what, that’s not the right answer; violence is a weak medicine when fighting a bully like Hunter Moore. I took the high road and didn’t even bother to respond. Instead of making an anger fueled decision, I studied Moore. Once I looked for his weaknesses, they were easy to find, #brainsoverbullies.
Moore’s world revolves around his Twitter account. It was horrifying to see how many of his followers retweeted his defamatory comments with even nastier ones. And then came the straw that broke the camel’s back. As if accusing me of pedophilia wasn’t bad enough, Hunter Moore threatened to rape my wife while my kids watched. He has now been served with a defamation lawsuit and has restraining orders filed against him in two States. He can add this to his ever-growing criminal record. Anyone who retweeted Hunter’s pedophile comments and added their own can also expect to be served with a defamation lawsuit. ”Internet Tough Guys” are also legally accountable for their actions. Hunter and some of his followers now realize this, along with their parents since some of his followers appear to be under the age of 18. You would think that Hunter would have learned his lesson about receiving naked photos of possibly underage girls on his Twitter account or via email after the FBI raided his house (actually his parents’ house since he still lives at home, he's 26) but apparently not.
Here at BullyVille, we’ve decided to turn this darkness into light. We’ll soon be launching a brand new site for isanyoneup.com that not only shows the history and eventual dismantling of this disturbing website, but also brings valuable information to people who have been wronged by similar behavior. We are also putting together a class action lawsuit against Hunter, on behalf of all the victims from Isanyoneup or any other social media that he used to directly harass and intimidate people. We’re doing this mostly for the completely powerless, underage women who were verbally harassed after Hunter posted their completely naked, unedited photos on his site.
Hunter Moore pissed me off long before he came after me and my family because he picked on those who he thought couldn’t fight back. I tried to use positivity to stop that, and I actually (naively) thought it worked. Now that he’s crossed the line with his personal attacks against me and my family, there’s no turning back, I won't let him. I once believed that a stint in the military might be a good option to get Hunter back on track, but unfortunately, he became ineligible after his recent arrest for head butting a woman in a nightclub in New York. And that sums up what kind of bully he is. He preys on those who he perceives as weak, but this time he’s not getting away with it.
Do I have your undivided attention Hunter? Do you clearly understand what is happening to you right now? I’m standing up to a bully, and that bully is you. Sometimes you have to be a bully to beat a bully. I’m reclaiming the innocence you so recklessly stole from these innocent young girls whose lives you’ve destroyed. Strong people stand up for themselves but the strongest people stand up for others. I’m really looking forward to seeing you in court as are some of the underage girls who you’ve publicly tormented. All of the money that we win from these multiple lawsuits against you will be donated to battered women’s shelters across the United States. Let this serve as a constant reminder to you that it’s never right, under any circumstance, to hit or disrespect a woman.
Now I realize that you don’t have any money, but after we win these judgments against you, any money you do earn in the future will go towards this charity. So you just go right ahead and launch that new website that you keep telling everyone about. October 31st, right Hunter? Your "investors" might as well just write a check to our charity because that's exactly where their money will be going when we're done with you. Oh, and the only thing you have left– your beloved social media, that’s going away too. Your Isanyoneup twitter account is going to be shut down shortly – and I’m 100% responsible for that. You see Hunter, you’re violating the trademarks that I now have in place for Isanyoneup and IAU. You might want to go read the fine print of that contract you signed. Remember your lifetime ban from Facebook? Well that also includes any other page you try to hide behind, including your current IAU2 Community Facebook page, say goodbye to that as well.
By the way Hunter, when you’re retweeting the completely nude photos of girls, are you verifying that each one of them is at least 18 years of age? I didn’t think so; add that to your list of problems for today. You might want to go familiarize yourself with Federal penal code 18 USC sect 2255. And Hunter your tweet about “leaking emails” between the two of us during the acquisition of your website would be so welcomed. Assuming you don’t create fake email interactions, which you’ve done in the past, you will be violating, yet again, the terms of the agreement which included a confidentiality clause. Any rational person doesn’t believe a word that comes out of your mouth, including the amount you’re claiming to your “fans” and the media that your revenge porn website was purchased for. Once again Hunter you’re on the main stage. Enjoy yet another 15 minutes of infamy, it will most likely be your last. Karma is right around the corner anxiously awaiting your arrival.
This will be the last time I speak to you directly Hunter. I’m sure you’re going to have some unbelievably intelligent public tweets/lies since you’re a literary genius. Looking forward to you supplying additional evidence so the world can see for themselves just who you really are. As Benjamin Disraeli once said, "courage is fire and bullying is smoke."

Peace and light to those who have been bullied, disdain to the ignorant who sow there own lips shut just in case.
he's basically daring the FBI to come after him claiming if they had something they would have locked him up already.

Unfortunately, revenge porn is not illegal, so victims of this site (and many others) have no resources and can't pursue any justice. Lawsuits are so expensive that many victims simply can't afford them. I found a petition that addresses just that. Please sign it and pass it on. http://www.endrevengeporn.com/End_Revenge_Porn/Petition.html
This is why I should proofread my posts.
i wonder: does the IAU copyright extend to tumblr? cuz he's on there in all his doughy glory. and he's still talking about "IAU2". dense frat boy is dense. whatever. keep up the good work.
The light has been hidden and it strikes fiercely upon its opposite. You have ruined the lives of many, and now you suffer dearly. Die evil, rid the internet for you do not belong in an open environment, you deserve to be contained like an animal, and liberty will shine and bestow upon its polar and strike the minds of the entrapped. We are the internet, do not **** with us.
I want to know why these girls and guys, take nude pictures and send them to anyone? I don't care how well you think you know the person. Phones get hacked, stolen and lost all of the time. That nice, trusting person you sent your pics to, people get mad and will post this stuff for revenge.
The best way you can be assured that your nude pictures do not end up on the internet is not to take them at all. Just like abstinence will assure you do not get pregnant. If you're a parent with teenagers, check your kids phone often or disable the camera or do not allow them to send pictures. Most smartphones give you this option or you can disable sending through your carrier. This will save them, and you, some embarrassment. OK. Enough with my preaching. I will be following this case
Porn addicted maniac-0
Hunter (along with others) attacked me and made me out to be something I am not. He took part in a fabricated plot to "ruin my life." I received death threats by the dozens, hundreds and hundreds of phone calls (because he posted my phone number several times), hundreds of emails and facebook messages. I had to go under a different name online for my business...because if you searched my name...all that came up was "pedophile" stuff. I lost my job at the time, and still to this very day (4/1/13) get turned down for work because of this. My life has been affected in every way possible as a result of Hunter slandering my name, and wrongly accusing me. He admitted himself that he knew he was wrong, and that I had nothing to do with the situation...but that he just wanted to ruin my life because I had "f****d with the biggest troll on the internet" as he claimed. Even with his website being shut down...my name and reputation, and mental health are all still being affected. I tried to take legal action...but it proved to be very costly...and in a time when I needed to put food in my stomach and pay my rent...I couldn't even begin thinking about dropping thousands of dollars (that I didn't have) on attorney fees. I have contacted and spoken with attorneys who wanted to take the case on...but sadly being an attorney is their JOB and ultimately they wanted to get paid. If someone has the pockets to sue Hunter, I have very legitimate evidence and proof that he bullied me and crossed the line legally.

He is currently in Omaha, Nebraska going by his name and trying to find business as a DJ. The last he posted he was staying in a hotel room in Omaha, Nebraska which would have been within the last couple days.
Revenge porn is not "bullying". If you were dumb enough to take naked pictures of yourself and release them to someone else, then you deserve it.
Seriously, these people probably cheated on their boyfriends or something, and I say they completely get what they deserve. Cyberbullying is completely different from this. Explain to me how a person who willingly took naked pics is being bullied. This is not even in the same category as true cyberbullying. These girls are pretty much sl*ts that got what they deserved.
