Scottish footballer quits the game (both the game he was in and football altogether) over unconscionable abuse from another player.

It may force the social media companies to finally do something about this. I imagine that like a one day strike, this is a shot across the bows and more actions will take place if this is ignored.
The social media companies are getting a load of bad publicity atm.
