1. Don't use social media, it stops instantly.
2. If you are a public person and want to use Social-Media give your account to a public relation firm.

A problem with that (aside from victim blaming) is that you don't even need to use social media to be part of the overarching concern. YouTube recommends vile shit and you need to vigilantly ask it to not recommend misogynistic garbage or it will train you to feed on the drip of hate. You're always at risk of being infected with the brain worms and could set out to abuse others.
If you read through the article it becomes clear that the solution isn't to stop online abuse (difficult to distinguish between healthy dialogue) but surveillance companies need to stop training the abusers with their Skinner Boxes. And they don't because hate fuels engagement.
I don't blame anybody, i just say:
DONT use hate filled platforms who flourish from hate and make no one happy. There is just no point in talking the world and hope that just the most civilized and humble peoples will answer you.
Given she's the BBC's disinformation specialist, it's also not reasonable to expect her to stay off social media.
Why not? Why should every journalist be professionally active on Twitter? There is no reason why every journalist should be active on Twitter, they could just stop. I don't think anything bad would happen from that, rather I would even expect that the quality of articles would improve if journalists didn't obsess over Twitter so much.
Can you explain why she absolutely have to be active and post on social media on a professional account? I don't see it, she can research disinformation and write articles even if she isn't active and commenting on events in real time on Twitter.
If you want to brag about your work especially as a "disinformation specialist" be prepared for some stormy waters.

Social interactions are full of gray areas and legislation obviously doesn't and can't catch it all. Some people have rather controversial definitions of violence and abuse. Though, I think social consensus is that physical violence threats are well beyond any grayness.
Not if you're already doxxed, it doesn't. These situations can easily expand into hate mail and phone calls.
