SWATTING THE NEW THREAT
S4E34
Katherine and Sarah discuss the issue of swatting, a criminal harassment tactic of tricking an emergency service into sending a response team to another person's address. Katherine and Sarah discuss how swatting has evolved over the years, moving from school bomb-threat pranks to a more dangerous, sophisticated level, potentially orchestrated internationally. They also highlight how swatting creates a climate of fear and affects perceptions of school safety. The discussion includes various aspects of swatting, such as its categorized actions, examples, motives, tracing strategies, and potential impacts.
