Bobby Norris is on a mission to make online trolling a crime, and the cause is very close to his heart.
The Towie legend, 33, exclusively told Mirror Online how he'd been threatened with acid attacks and being stabbed by anonymous internet users.
He said: "I've had death threats.
"When people tell me they’re gonna come to my house with an 11 inch machete being so specific, we’re gonna throw acid in your face, we’re gonna burn your house down and kill you.
"What are you getting from that? To me it’s so dark and twisted it breaks my heart."
But the reality TV star has said he won't let the strolls stop him from living his life.
He added: "A boy’s got to eat I’ve got to go Sainsbury’s.
"I’m not gonna give them that power.
"Of course it hurts but I’ve got a thick skin."
Bobby's petition has reached 131,620 signatures, 30,000 more than he needed to be considered for a debate in parliament.
The Essex boy called for social media sites to block trolls' IP addresses so they can't create multiple accounts to target both celebrities and the public.
He visited the Houses of Parliament and even went to Downing Street to discuss the issue.
The government said they are working towards putting an end to trolling by holding websites more accountable.
Bobby added: "The support I’ve had from so many people I’m so grateful."
