Title: Gamer raided by Swat team in front of 60,000 viewers
Summary:
Air Force veteran, Joshua Peters, was targeted by
anonymous attackers in the middle of a Twitch stream of the browser game
Runescape. The veteran was confronted by 10 armed SWAT team members where they
had arrived at the veteran’s house and was in shock.
Facts/Phrases:
Ø Before
ending the show, the streamer turned back to the audience, and addressed his
attacker. “I see you posting my address. I had police point a gun at my little
brothers because of you. They could have been shot, they could have died.
Because you chose to swat my stream. I don’t give a shit about what you have
against me, or what I did to you. For that I am at a loss for words. Your gripe
is with me. But do not involve my family in this. They don’t deserve it.”
Opinion:
In my opinion, this was caused by
the development of New and digital media; this is because the rise has
introduced newer crimes and forms to which crimes can be committed and since the
attackers had attempted it again it was a personal vendetta.
