This sort of stuff should be regulated and outlawed out of existence.


It's already illegal, potentially for multiple reasons, at least here in England.


Laws only work if they're enforced. It can be illegal but how much effort does it take to actually get the problem investigated by the relevant authorities?


Well, harassment can be a criminal offence here, and depending on the circumstances actual police officers will turn up to formally notify someone that a complaint of harassment has been made against them. I imagine uniformed police officers turning up at your corporate HQ would be enough to get most businesses' attention.
