JK Rowling’s recent updates caused quite a stir.
British author JK Rowling’s recent publications on the X service have attracted a lot of attention. Rowling has expressed sharp opinions on her social media channels, which some critics have considered transphobic.
In her latest writings, Rowling took a strong stance on Scotland’s new hate crime law.
The new law specifies that inciting hatred based on age, disability, religion, sexual orientation, transgender identity or intersex is a crime.
Rowling, who lives in Edinburgh, was reported to the police several times after the law came into effect.
Rowling already announced last October that she is ready to go to jail for her opinions.

The British newspaper Daily Mail writes that the Scottish police have not taken action because of Rowling’s writings due to the law change.
Police Scotland confirmed on their X account that the comments in question do not meet the requirements of the crime.
– We have received notifications from social media messages. The comments have not been judged to be against the law, and no further action will be taken based on them.
Rowling has received support from the Prime Minister of Great Britain Rishi Sunakilta.
– People should not be held criminally responsible if they present facts about biology out loud, Sunak said.
JK Rowling is best known Harry Potter as the author of the books and creator of the Harry Potter world.
