The Blogger's Code of Conduct is a proposal by Tim O'Reilly for bloggers to enforce civility on their blogs by being civil themselves and moderating comments on their blog. 
The code was proposed in 2007 due to threats made to blogger Kathy Sierra.^[1] The idea of the code was first reported by BBC News, who quoted O'Reilly saying, "I do think we need some code of conduct around what is acceptable behaviour, I would hope that it doesn't come through any kind of regulation it would come through self-regulation.".^[2]

CODE OF CONDUCT FOR BLOGGER

In Ireland the proposal for a code was raised in an article in Sunday Business Post in 2009 by Simon Palmer, a radio presenter and PR consultant in Dublin, after false details in relation to a client had appeared on Irish blogs Time To Raise Above Blog Standard. After his comments he was subjected to sustained on line abuse from Irish bloggers and anonymous trolls and even received death threats. 

In Nepal, 10 prominent bloggers signed a Code of Ethics for Bloggers, first proposed by Ujjwal Acharya and finalized after discussion among bloggers, on July 27, 2011.^[3]
 
According to The New York Times, O'Reilly and Jimmy Wales based their preliminary list on one developed by the BlogHer women's blogging support network^[4] and, working with others, came up with a list of seven proposed ideas:

Technology blogger Robert Scoble stated that the proposed rules “make me feel uncomfortable” and “As a writer, it makes me feel like I live in Iran.”^[4]
