If you've never heard of Swatting before, it's a "prank" where hackers use someone's information and call 911 to make threats big enough to get the Swat on issue. Using Magic Jacks, or other devices similar to it, the caller can keep their call from being traced. Swatting is obviously illegal, as it's not only a waste of police resources, but it can also get innocent people injured or killed. In most recent situations, the calls have been causing streamers on the gaming stream site, twitch.tv, major trouble. The Creatures are an extremely popular group of gamers on YouTube. Jordan (Kootra) and Dan (DanzNewz) usually stream on Tuesdays. Today, however, they were the only two at their office, and Kootra was streaming alone. They were swatted and Danz was almost shot. Just a few days before this incident, another twitch user, under the alias of Whiteboy, was also swatted. In his case, he and his girlfriend were in possession of marijuana and were arrested for that. The people pulling this so-called prank somehow find it funny. How can anyone laugh at something like this? How can you brag about it, even? You have the chances of causing someone's death and you're just gonna nonchalantly claim the blame? Below is the highlight from when Kootra was unjustly arrested during his stream. He his free now and things have been cleared up, but there is definitely some sort of action that needs to be taken to stop inhumane trickery such as this. -
