The answer to offensive/discriminatory behaviour is for said behaviour to be appropriately dealt with.
If a wheelchair user went to a bar and was subject to abuse and offensive behaviour, the answer isn't to tell them not to go to that particular bar.
If the abuse was from a house on the street, the answer isn't for the disabled man to be expected to use another route or put in ear plugs.
This new legislation aims to set out the rules that we must all abide by, or face the consequences. By far, the vast majority of people won't need to make any changes as they already behave properly on the internet.
