I'm guessing you mean trawling the internet rather than trying to upset and annoy the internet:)

I see as well that the US English spelling for "trawl" (as in fishing) is troll. Again, mainly US.
And I assume trawling vs trolling is one of those things that you feel the urge to point out just like I hate when someone says “jive” instead of “jibe”.
That last sentence was not meant to be passive aggressive at all. It was just an observation.
I certainly didn't read it that way. It just stood out because British English is my native language.
