Thank you as always, Heidi. If anyone is interested in the larger issue of cyber-antisemitism, there's an NGO that is working on the issues. It's *Cyberwell*. Been in business for a couple of years and is monitoring a variety of issues. They've been in conversations with a number of the major providers, and have had some success.
