Available for over a year

A Cambridge Academic has found herself bombarded by internet trolls after posting a very innocent photo of a proud moment. Dr Ally Louks put a picture of herself with her completed PhD thesis on the X platform, formerly Twitter. It's been viewed over 100 million times and attracted more than 11 thousand responses. Many people replied with congratulations, but there's also been a staggering amount of abuse as Dotty McLeod hears from Dr Ally Louks. (Picture credit: Ally Louks / X)
