California Senate Approves Anti-SWATting Bill
To me, this merits a big shrug of the shoulders. They’re barely catching anyone — but if they do, that slap on the wrist is going to be so hard now!
SWATting isn’t just for celebrities, by the way, as shown by this story of a SWATting in Des Moines. The name of the victim has not been released. Thanks to Russ from Winterset for that one.
Des Moines — hey, that’s Neal Rauhauser’s old stomping grounds!
