That's a true medical horror, Francis, but there are many horrors in this world. Banning people from discussing them on or off the internet seems to me to infringe on personal liberties; for the same reasons I'm categorically opposed to the EU (and elsewhere, like Switzerland) laws banning Nazi paraphernalia and the like.

We are not taking away the right for people to "talk" about anorexia.
This law (when voted, but I've no doubt it will) will forbid people making the apology of anorexia.
As, at least for me, it's akin to self-torture it falls in the same context as laws forbiding the apology of torture.
But it's obviously, only my own opinion.
