Which The Daily Beast uses and occasion to look at cyberstalking in general…

The furious outpouring of Twitter venom first appeared on an account belonging to someone operating under the name @Gunn2urhead on May 16, just one day after the multiplatinum-selling alterna-rock group Garbage released its new album, Not Your Kind of People.

Of the 273 tweets @Gunn2urhead posted that day, the overwhelming majority were diatribes directed at Garbage’s official Twitter account, a timeline shared by all four band mates.

“EVERY NIGHT AND DAY SHE’S MESSING WITH ME!!! CAN’T TAKE NO FOR AN ANSWER!!!” @Gunn2urhead tweeted. “SO YOU WANT ME TO KILL YOU OR MYSELF?”

Later, the individual behind the account tweeted: “IM GONNA KILL U BITCH!!!!!!!”
