For nearly two years, police have been tracking down the culprit behind a wave of hoax threats. A digital trail took them to the door of a 17-year-old in California.
There was a story posted a day or so ago about a teen getting arrested for multiple Swatting attacks. This story from Wired explains how the authorities tracked him down and pieced everything together.
He barely hid yet it took that long to arrest him. He wasn’t even trying to hide his IP.
No one ever accused the police of being good at their jobs.
