He hasn’t sent anybody to prison.
He’s referred some requests to law enforcement, who’ve than taken whatever action they deem necessary. (Admittedly in some jurisdictions for some demographics, there might not be much distinction there.)
If your angry 13 year old brother or cognitively impaired cousin that you didn’t get a PS5 for xmas emailed this guy, it’s spectacularly unlikely the cops would send him to prison.
- watwut 5y agoIt is actually more likely the cognitively impaired would end up in prison. They people sux even more then usual at navigating criminal system. Same for kids. That being said, the " 13 year old brother or cognitively impaired cousin that you didn’t get a PS5 for" are an actual threat and those around them do need intervention. Not reporting them amounts to enabling.
- enkid 5y agoRight, the problem isn't the guy reporting the people, it's some of the stuff leading up to it and after it.
- rlt 5y agoI think it’s equally unlikely “nearly 150 lives have been saved as a direct result of the site and [his] actions”. I’m sure some subset of those cases were credible threats, but I’m confident there’s at least one person in jail who would have quickly given up if this very convenient site had not existed.
