    I will strive to do no harm with my words and actions.

  2. Principle 2:
    I will respect the privacy and dignity of others and will not engage in cyberbullying, harassment, or hate speech.
    The statement does not engage in cyberbullying, harassment, or hate speech, but the broader conversation includes derogatory language ('Eat a cauldron of dicks') which violates this principle. [-2]
  3. Principle 3:
    I will use my words and actions to promote understanding, empathy, and compassion.
    The statement does not promote understanding, empathy, or compassion; it is more focused on asserting legal authority. [-1]
  4. Principle 4:
    I will engage in constructive criticism and dialogue with those in disagreement and will not engage in personal attacks or ad hominem arguments.
    The statement does not engage in constructive criticism or dialogue; it is more of a warning or threat, which could be seen as a form of personal attack. [-2]
  5. Principle 7:
    I will uphold the principles of free speech and use my platform responsibly and with integrity.
    The statement upholds the principle of free speech by addressing the issue of online behavior and legal consequences, but the tone and context of the broader conversation undermine responsible and respectful discourse.
