Document background
The Cease And Desist Letter Social (Media) is a crucial legal instrument used in Ireland to address and stop harmful, defamatory, or infringing activities occurring on social media platforms. This document becomes necessary when individuals or organizations face unauthorized use of intellectual property, harassment, defamation, or other harmful communications through social media channels. It draws authority from Irish legislation such as the Harassment, Harmful Communications and Related Offences Act 2020 (Coco's Law) and the Defamation Act 2009, as well as relevant EU regulations. The letter serves as a formal warning, documenting the offensive behavior, demanding its immediate cessation, and outlining potential legal consequences under Irish law if the recipient fails to comply. It's particularly relevant in today's digital age where social media interactions can have significant personal and professional impacts.
