Keep Yer Death Threat To 140 Characters, Please

A student in Gaston County, NC, is facing punishment at school for making death threats against his biology teacher on Twitter.

Look at this interesting paragraph, though:

WSOC-TV reports a West Virginia company recently contacted local police after its social media monitoring service picked up a message where a high school student allegedly threatened to kill his biology teacher. (bold mine)

So, if you thought that you could tweet in perfect anonymity, here's yer wakeup call.
