A US business consultant who wants to know who's been anonymously disparaging and fixating on her online has gotten a court to force Google to tell her.

As she joined a growing number of people who have persuaded courts to unmask troublesome cyber ciphers, Carla Franklin said today she hoped her case would help others combat similar problems.

"The internet cannot become a safe haven for harassers and stalkers," she said in an email.

Google declined to comment. The California-based online giant said it didn't discuss individual cases to protect users' privacy, but it followed applicable laws.

A Manhattan court ruling issued Tuesday US time gives the company a couple of weeks to provide Franklin with identity and contact information for the person or people who posted denigrating comments and unauthorised videos of her, beginning last year.
