    If I had thousands of followers and I posted your social media info while insulting you, wouldn't you consider that a threat? I don't think a gag order, which was very narrow, is much of a punishment.

      Legally that is not a threat. Now it is a violation of the gag order, which is illegal. A lawyer could try and argue it is a threat, but that could take much longer, set precedent for future cases, and isn’t as guaranteed as a gag order.
