Recent high-profile swatting incidents in the US have led to an FBI campaign aimed at raising awareness of the dangers associated with this dangerous prank. Swatting involves false reports to law enforcement, often targeting innocent individuals, and can result in deadly outcomes. The FBI's guidance comes amid reports of swattings against podcasters and the family of a murdered young athlete, which have raised concerns about escalation and the impact on victims. The incidents have sparked public outrage, with some likening swatting to terrorism and attempted murder, highlighting the severe emotional and social consequences of these acts.
This is literal fucking terrorism,
This is nothing short of attempted murder,
They wanted the police to kill my father.
The case quickly attracted interest from outsiders.
