Since most Mobs don't even bother to verify their Information, People have gotten harassed, received death threats and lost their jobs on purely fictional Information. Or committed suicide, like Sunil Tripathi [1].
This is inacceptable.

- johnmaguire2013 11y agoI just read the Wikipedia page and nothing in it said he committed suicide due to being harassed on fictional information from online. In fact, he had already been missing a month when he was accused. And his body was found shortly after.
